"Why.. why does injustice exists?"
"Because justice does- Wait, what are we talking about again?"
"The world is cruel."
"Nope, it isn't. Truth is, the world is fair. Cruelty is.. is a.. product of how everyone is in the world."
"It isn't fair."
"It sure does but I'm guessing you're thinking why there are people who are in better position than others. That's what you're thinking, right?"
"Yes, aren't we all equal in the eyes of our maker?"
"That is true but that's just because it's in the eyes of the one who made us. Much like how the shepherd sees his flocks, the sheeps are all just the same. Although, we cannot say if there are some who are more favored than others but that's just.. happens when certain conditions are met? I think. But still to a shepherd, a sheep is still a sheep."
"But why isn't everyone treated equally?"
"We're not the shepherd. We're the sheep. And in a community of sheep there is also someone who'd always do better and are in better position than others. That is the truth. To say it simply, not everyone is equal. That is the truth we have to adhere since we are just sheep."
"But that's just unfair."
"Would it be fair for the hard working and the hardly working to earn the same wage at the end of the day?"
"No but that's.. Not everyone gets the same opportunity as others."
"That's the parent's fault. And then the parents' parents and so on and so on."
"What?"
"A person's hard works, achievements and opus, if there can be, is what will determine the life of the generation that follows. The inequality you speak of actually took place in the time of our ancestor. But that isn't everything, how things will be after you get to a certain phase, will be all on how you put effort into your life. Think of it as a game, the difficulty set to us in the beginning is thanks to the efforts put in by our ancestors but how we play game is what determines with how things will be in our life and of the next."
