@M...@Linda-thanks for the compliment and reposting!<br />@Martha- I must admit, I've only recently come to this conclusion. I've spent a lifetime trying to be fair and failing at it!<br />@Nikky-You have really hit the nail on the head-we don't have the same needs and consequently being "fair" is not only a bad idea, it's unnecessary<br />@Jan--I like the way you put it, "making the world grey" should not be a goalLynne Wattshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02788918458763274157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8760580232883116615.post-27215272391968333322012-05-14T13:21:42.149-04:002012-05-14T13:21:42.149-04:00great post.

My thoughts were always different, I'm not into giving everyone a prize at the end of the day. I feel if everyone gets the prize it is no longer special or earned. If one child/person excels today<br />in their endeavors, then they receive the prize. In the same manner if one child/person needs discipline one child gets it. Making the world grey is not a goal of mine.

I always chose to give the best I can and I encourage the person I gave to to give something else to a third person and make it as a chain. We don't have the same needs, but we all have needs that others can fulfillNikky44https://www.blogger.com/profile/06725453458357123087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8760580232883116615.post-33198392780392212552012-05-13T22:21:49.232-04:002012-05-13T22:21:49.232-04:00It is never about being fair, it's always abou...It is never about being fair, it's always about making a difference in the lives of others.
