In all its fairness... I have some questions

It looks like this world and life thrives on unfairness, making the term "deserve" irrelevant in almost all the contexts I've come across.

We don't give to where we take from and don't get from where we give to.

For all the fairness lessons we have imbibed over time, guilt is the outcome of this unfair scheme.

Can we control and bring fairness to this world?
Would it take an enormous heart with lots of efforts to bestow fairness this world deserves?
If, "We don't give to where we take from and don't get from where we give to" is true, then do we at least have the power to choose where to give and be sure of the consequences?
Should we choose to give to the parched as against the ungrateful?
Should we give back to where we took from?
Some of us are givers and takers and some of us just stick to one of the two.
Is our give or take pattern a compensating tactic as we feel subjected to fairness transactions we do not have control over?

I do not have answers. But I think it's is interesting to observe, analyse and learn from all the sweet and bitter experiences of self and of others. And if there are inferences that can be utilised to solve some of the big problems this world faces and in turn bring fairness, then we've done our bit living on this planet.

Thinking about distraction and purpose

I was thinking of distraction this morning and how we all struggle to focus and make decisions. With too many things around and cut throat competition, we do not know what we want and cannot allow enough time to try to know what we want.

But that said, distraction is good at times. Because our mind is silly. It grieves over something and forgets about it the very next moment. All the effort taken to make it feel good would feel stupid. Routine is a form of distraction that lets one's mind divert and be ok and stay secure from things that it is obsessing with, causing harm to the person and to people and things around the person. "So how much distraction is helpful?" is a good question.  An ideal amount of distraction is something that would help one pull away from obsession and function normally but when it grows in intensity so as to obstruct one from one's quest for purpose or truth or whatever larger aspect, that is when one needs to stop. This means constantly evaluating one's actions and practices and also being flexible and this I think will help to stay the course of the quest for purpose.
