The world is 100% under the sway of Satan yet God is taking no direct action to actively contest him on that.

I have met people not under Satan's sway. They are super rare (I've been exposed to three in my life, which spans several decades), but they exist. Ironically, you can know them in part precisely because being famous holds absolutely no interest for them. Serving God has zero to do with seeking human adulation. In fact, the two are almost complete mutual opposites.

There is no normal life. There never has been, and there never will. There is what we see around us. We each live the portion of life we are offered, and then we die. For some this is more painful, for some less, but to try to claim to understand the "meaning" of any life is beyond any of us. Throughout history, for thousands of years, there have been children who have died as a result of the abuse of their parents. Is the current life we see around us more unjust than that? But that has always been, and continues to this day.

You're judging God, and you're hardly the first to do so. There's nothing wrong with your anger. It's natural. We all do it. But simultaneously I suggest trying to find a space in your heart to recognize that God operates on a level that is beyond human comprehension. It's beyond you; it's beyond me. We don't understand. That's precisely why we're talking about "God" in the first place.

Play your best part. Be the best light in this universe you know how to be. Then at least when you judge yourself (a more reasonable and approachable task than attempting to go after God), you have hope of finding some of the light you feel has been robbed from you.
