I feel your concerns, I'm actually struggling almost everyday to come in terms with reality and how life is. Truth is, sometimes we can't do much about major things and how they impact us. I also believe though that being grateful for what we already have and trying to preserve it is a step forward.
Sometimes it's sad for me to accept that we don't live in a just world but that should not hinder us from trying to achieve that, even the smallest of steps does make a difference in the end :)Peace!
