Not good odds

I'm laying propped up in bed with a kitty cat laying on my lap on this cold day in March.

I'm sad, life isn't fair, far too often the bad guys actually win. 

Sometimes the most talented, dedicated, hard working people don't get the rewards. 

Sometimes people that should be punished for their crimes, are not.

We who care are left grappling with the reasoning for why this is and the answers aren't easy to accept.

Because we want to believe that talent and hard work will bring us success. That there is justice in this world if not in the next. We want to believe that good will prevail in the end. 

The hard truth is that sometimes it takes a whole lot of people, standing up and doing the right thing, at the right time, to overcome some odds.

These odds are not good, but will we do what it takes to change things? I hope so.
