Life can be rather cruel. Each and every step we take are life teachings. We can either follow the light or the darkness. The way of darkness is the easy path. It is a path many find accidentally and never get off. I feel life is one great big test and learning experience that is meant to prepare us for the next level. The better we are the harder the obstacles. We have to stay strong and not let our problems diminish our faith in whatever it is that we believe in. We have to believe that the obstacles are worth the trouble, that it is in preparation for something better. We all want that something better. We all have different names for it. The Vikings called it Valhalla. The Christians call it Heaven. The Wiccans call it Summerland.
Whatever you or someone else decides to call the afterlife that you or they believe in, we are all hoping that we are assured a better life when we get there. It is important to try and not let the fact that injustice is allowed for a reason. It is however frowned upon by that which created us. In the end justice will be served. Does a teacher stop the student in the middle of a test or an assignment to give him/her the answers? No. The plan is to let the student learn it on his/her own if they can as they teach through examples of some sort. The teacher can't very well do everything for the student or he/she will not learn. The teacher sets forth the assignments, shows some learning examples, then sets forth at testing the student to find out what the student has learned so that the teacher can set forth an appropriate learning plan whether it means advancement to the next lesson or making the student stay were they are at and re-learn the lesson all over. The teacher tries to instruct the student on what he/she did wrong so that he/she will eventually learn how to do it correctly. Hopefully during the assignment the other students have learned the assignment so that the teacher isn't having to re-teach the whole assignment again. I'm pretty certain that the people who are getting ahead at other people's expense, aren't going to get rewarded as well in the next life. I believe whole-heartedly that they have a lesson plan set in front of them and if they can't learn they will be placed back a step, have to repeat the lesson, or if they did well, they will continue to the next lesson with the rest that did well.
