MY BIG QUESTION

"It always rains the hardest on those who deserve the sun." 
Those that are genuinely good people, who do no wrong against others, are hard working, and have always struggled cannot seem to catch a break. Why is this so? 

Also why is our society good at "pretending"? We pretend to be happy or pretend to be something we're not. Nowadays pretending seems what we do best. Society seems to be faking it to make it. Why must we pretend? Why must we pretend to be something other than ourselves? Why aren't our standards good enough for society, that we have to stoop to their unattainable idea of perfection? For in the end, we only lose ourselves to what we pretend to be. Is pretending truly worth it?
