Default Balance of positive and negative

There's a saying in my country, in translation it sounds something like this: For every one that is rising there's one falling down. It is saying that everything in life has balance, when good things happen to us something bad happens to someone else also effected by the same things that effected us but in opposite way.

For example, if one team wins in a football match their fans are going home happy and satisfied but opponent's fans are sad and angry. Sometimes can happen that much more people are being affected with one mood, if my country with 4,5 mil. people win in some match against USA team, for example.
If you have girlfriend and you're happy there can be 10 other guys who wants to be with her but they aren't so they are unhappy.

In The Secret it's said that only 3% of population is rich on this world cause they understand laws that are ruling the world. But still there's 75% poor people. That is far from perfect 50-50 balance.

Do you belive that one day real balance can happen on earth? Is this real and fair balance? Or maybe this balance will destroy our world? In nature everything seems to be working on 50-50 principle, but we are ruining this. If you realise bad things that will happen somewhere when you reach your goal, it can be helpful for reaching you goal ana tell you is it worth it

Good and bad are relative terms. Good and bad to you is different then good and bad for me. I don't think there is a balance in the terms you are speaking of. In your football match analogy the losing teams and fans are sad because they had a desired outcome which failed to manifest. If they had not gone into the game, bringing with them their hope at a certain outcome they could have just enjoyed the game for what it was...not what they wanted or expected it to be...suffering comes from expectations...
