There is something going on that is much bigger than any of us can imagine. Yet we try, through our worship of humanity, to believe that there is a divinity that cares about one species above all others.
Indeed there is a creator but it cares for the survival of all life and humans are only a small part of that. It cares less about the individual and more about the survival of the whole. Viewed this way, many of the world’s ‘tragedies’ make sense. Broken bones heal back stronger. To answer the question – why would God let this happen? The answer is for the betterment of the whole. The benefit exists even if it is at first not apparent.
The hardest thing for the individual to accept about a unified philosophy is that it requires overcoming self importance. There is no father looking out for you specifically – but if you sincerely look to contribute to the whole you’re on the same team. (And therefore may expect aid)
Individuality is an illusion of consciousness, all experiences are filtered through individual perspective and tainted with self importance. To raise awareness above self importance is to embrace the immortal spirit in everything.

Hi. We all need to ask one simple question to ourselves: What would I do if I needed to make this decision again? What did I hear? What did I feel? NOT why did he/she talk to me like that? What did I do to deserve this? There is only one way to master our relationships; it is mastering our way of communication style.
