Frustration at the Unfairness of LIfe

I have to admit, my mood is not the best today, thinking too much about a deception done me.  Then I read a friend's blog post and it brought in me a huge feeling of frustration as to why very, very good people cannot enjoy a little happiness in life.

Yes, they did, for a short time.  But I want more for them.  And this is where I get frustrated, when I have to ask God, "Why?  Would it have been so hard to let Q. live and allow them to grow old together?!"  It bugs the hell out of me - we see idiots like Kim Kardashian and Sinead O'Connor make a mockery of marriage, and two decent people get only a brief time together.  It really, really makes me mad.

But at whom?  I struggle with sometimes shaking my fist at Heaven, because I want deserving people to be happy and I feel as if I am an ineffectual advocate for them against God, even in prayer.  I know I am not the first or only to feel that.  Read the Psalms - plenty of them bemoan what is felt to be an abandonment by God.

So I will pray for the Gem and Qbunny.  And allow myself to shed some tears for them, both from frustration and for thanksgiving for the time they had together.  I ask you to do the same.
