Letter 6: What is Right and What is Fair

We live in a world surrounded by people who do not do the right thing and by situations that are not fair.  And you know what, there is only one way to change that- do the right thing, be fair.  If you cannot convince people to do what is right and fair, then walk away from them and never look back.  People don't change unless they want to change.

Keep in mind the statistics of the real world:

Percentage of marriages that end in divorce in America: 53%

Medical field(s) with the highest divorce rate: psychiatrists and marriage counselors

Percentage of marriages where one or both spouses admit to infidelity, either physical or emotional: 41%

Percentage of men who admit to committing infidelity in any relationship they've had: 57%

Percentage of women who admit to committing infidelity in any relationship they've had: 54%

I could go on, but why?  You understand. The people that think they can tell you what is right and how to act have highest likelihood of failing.  

Notice that people have a hard time doing the right thing- more people do the wrong thing than the right.  Keep in mind that a marriage is the most important relationship you will ever have - Everything is at stake- your spouse, kids, parents, money, house, life.

So always do what is fair and right; regardless if everyone else is doing what is wrong and not fair.
