To Be Fair Or To Be Nice

To be fair or to be nice



Sometimes I stumble, I stumble upon to be fair or to be nice
To be fair,  might mean to be not nice
To be fair means to pass unfavorable judgement to someone
That someone  you might like very much. To be fair or to be nice?
To be nice might mean to be unjust. 
To be fair  or to be nice?


To be fair might mean giving someone  the chance.
That someone might be your competition. To be fair or to be nice?
To be nice means to be fair, but to be fair costs you
To be fair or to be nice?

To be fair means everyone has a say.
Not everyone has a good say.
To be nice might be saying anything that they want to hear, even without the associated action.
That has future impacts
 To be fair or to be nice?

To be fair means strength, to be fair means accountability, to be fair means challenge
To be fair means responsibility. To be fair is not easy
Choose to be fair.  To be nice is  a shortcut that goes nowhere.
Just do not stumble like me , be fair!
