Fair???

Life's not fair...That's what my mom always says. And that's what I think when I think about going to Israel...
It's not fair. Why do some kids have a lot of money and get to travel the world whenever they want?
It's not fair. God knows how much I wanted (want) to be the IBEX volunteer, so why did He give the opportunity to my friend?
It's not fair. God knows how much I love Israel and traveling, so why am I here in the States?
It's not fair.
Or is it?
Or is it fair that I am about to graduate from college?
Or is it fair that I have been able to go Israel not once but twice?
Or is it fair that I have a major and the training (eventually) that can be used around the world?
Or is it fair that I have the mental and physical capacities to tackle both everyday and unusual circumstances? (Let's not talk about social capacities ;) )
Or is it fair that I have been redeemed from the pit of hell and the snare of the devil?
Or is it fair that I have the vast majority of my immediate and extended family still living?
Is it fair?
Or isn't it fair.
