Only Thing Fair in Life is Milk
My favorite brand of milk is Fair Life. The taste is delicious. They have chocolate, strawberry, and protein options. Not to mention, the light blue colored bottles labeled 2% and the red ones labeled “whole”. Which, by the way, I never understood. In “milk math” 2% stands for the TOTAL WEIGHT in fat, but not actually the “amount” of fat the bottle has. In other words, ten pounds of pennies isn’t also ten dollars of income. Nevertheless, the point is, Fair Life is good.
However, can having a fair life extend beyond just milk? It depends. What do people say having a fair life is?Is it a luxury car, yacht, lots of money, good health, many friends, good food, zero taxes, family, short lines at the DMV, no enemies, unlimited sunshine, no Trump in office, or perhaps the opposite? Do you see the point, though?
If having a fair life means intercourse with the things we strongly desire, joy will always be promiscuous. Instead, A fair life is about contentment (and not to be confused with complacent). And then making sure the total weight in you, concerning it, exceeds 2%—going from blue to red, making life “whole”. Yes, I know. Contentment isn’t easy. But who said life was fair?
