Why is it the nice ones that suffer?

I have had to deal with a lot of bad things in my life. I'm not going to bore you with details but they have made me to be a strong person. The last week however has been hard. My uncle, who lives in Madison has been sick for a while but it wasn't until recently that he developed kidney failure. We spent the last week there with him while he got dialysis and other treatments to try and help things and they would get better then worse and he is still not doing well but that is not really why I'm writing. It makes me wonder with all the nice people that these horrible things happen to why does it always happen to the people that seem to be the nicest or have the most going for them. Like what happened with Alicia this last weeks what the heck are people thinking. Everyone in the town loved her and she gets killed. Tell me how this is fair. You never hear about how the abusive boyfriend dies or how these horrible people got hurt and are paralyzed it's always the nice people. Then I got to thinking, maybe it is not that we don't hear about it, maybe it is that we don't care when it happens to someone that was abusive or drank heavily. Maybe we still like to look at the best in some people when we are close to them and still say just because they had this problem doesn't make them bad. I don't know why it seems like it is that way. I just can't seem to get it out of my head. Any thoughts?
