Many life events and circumstances are not right to begin with--take of the death of a loved one, for example, or the loss of a job. "Setting right" in these kinds of situations does not bring the loved one back or equal the return of employment. Instead, it could mean moving forward without integrating bitterness or resentment into your life, or allowing yourself to feel the pain that comes with these losses, thus moving forward in a healthy way. "Setting right" or "repairing" is a process that involves examining what this means for a person's particular situation. Yes, I think you've made an important point here, Corey.

Do we ever encounter those difficulties that were simply never 'right' or 'whole', that is-- is ever our goal to be simply learning to move forward with those things that were never 'right' and never will be?
