"Fair" Treatment

from Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life · host Michelle Burkhard

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why can we do all the “right” things and still not get the result we expected? In today’s episode, Michelle explores our assumptions about fairness, cause and effect, and the judgments we make about what we believe should or should not be happening in our lives.Sometimes there are causes influencing our circumstancesthat we simply cannot see or understand yet. We may try harder, change direction, take control, or decide something is unfair when perhaps there is a much bigger picture unfolding. Michelle invites us to consider that each person is on their own unique journey, learning different lessons and experiencing life from a perspective we may never fully understand. Instead of immediately judging an experience as unfair, what might happen if we became curious aboutwhat else could be happening beneath the surface? Perhaps something we currently see as unfair may eventually reveal itself as an important part of our growth, purpose, or highest good.Questions or comments? I’d love to hear from you!
