"Why do bad things happen to good people?"

i have ALWAYS questioned if there was a higher person somewhere who could give me an answer as to why my father, who was careful with his diet, has maintenance meds for hypertension, regular excercises, attends regular sunday masses, was there every single day of the misa de gallo when he was in the country for a 2-3month vacation, do not smoke, do not drink alcoholic beverages and above all, a great father......STILL suffered stroke..... why?

does he really deserve that? if he does, what is the basis because on all common sense and logic, he doesn't....

my mother....a devout catholic...a member of a church group...strict with her diet....hardworking....attends regular masses until my father had stroke, now she misses at times....her hands are almost always full....has 2 kids....leaves nothing for herself....selfless....i can't think of 1 single bad thing about her.... now....she needs to have an operation to have her mattress removed....

does she really deserve that? if she does, what is the basis because on all common sense and logic, she doesn't....

some of you guys call this a test..... a test of what? faith? don't you think those (what my father and mother are) are enough to prove their faith?
instead of rewarding that faith, give them unbearable pain?

it also happends to bad people. wa ju'y pili whether good or bad **it happens. mao nay gi ingon na ang buhay ay weather2 lang...

its a test to see if you're worthy

The bad would try to topple down what is good.

i feel for you bro.

i do not agree these things happen because it is TEST.

this no TEST.

there is a reason, i do not understand, i do not know why.

if this is a TEST, then i am FAILING.

what now?

all the goodness for nothing?

i realized...bad things happen to all, irregardless of whether they are good nor bad. no exceptions.
