Life is not Fair (and it is not unfair either)

Hanoch of Aleksandrov explained how this world can be compared to a wedding hall.
"A man came to an inn in Warsaw.  In the evening there floated music and sounds of dancing coming from the adjacent house.
"They must be having a wedding," he thought.
The next evening he heard the same sounds and the next evening as well.
"How can there be so many weddings in one family?" he wondered.
The innkeeper answered, "That house is a wedding hall.  Today there is one wedding and tomorrow there will be another."
"It is the same with this world," told Rabbi Hanoch.  "People are always enjoying themselves.  But some days it is one person and other days it is another.  No single person is happy all the time."  -Francine Klagsbrun

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
