Life’s Most Brutal Lesson: It Owes You Nothing

“Why me?”

“I deserve so much better than this…”

Perhaps you’ve been diagnosed with a chronic or terminal illness. Or maybe you’ve lost your job again. Or you’re going through a bad break up.

And you’re thinking to yourself “What did I do to deserve this sh*t?!”

Quite frankly, you did nothing to deserve it. But that isn’t the way life works anyway.

Life doesn’t owe you anything.

Life doesn’t owe you love.

Life doesn’t owe you wealth.

Life doesn’t owe you good health.

Life doesn’t owe you that sexy ass or that six-pack.

Life doesn’t owe you success.

Really, think about it. Why should it?

You are put on this earth in a living body and the rest sort of just… happens...

Bad things happen to good people. Good things happen to crappy people.

The richest people on this earth seem to do nothing to help the poor. Children get cancer. Footballers get paid much more than nurses. Wars happen. Babies are born with disabilities. It’s not fair.

But we aren’t entitled to a single thing.
