What is justice?

 

Justice is a relative term.

What I state as just others might label as unjust.

What I think is right others might think is wrong.

What I think is fair might seem inequitable to others.

 

We see atrocities around us ALL the time, whether it was global or local.

Are we willing to speak out about what is wrong?

 

Side note: Tweeting about it is not considered an action that results in change; though it is a very successful medium to voice your opinion it is not a dependable method.

 

We might differ in views about the term of justice, even question if justice actually exists, but there are global phenomenon’s that are morally wrong to whomever the viewer is.

 

We see and hear of poverty on the lands of Africa, children dying of hunger and thirst, we gulp in imagination, we hold our belly’s in wonder of their situation, we feel sorry for them, we quiver in fear of it happening to us, we thank god for our blessing, maybe sometimes donate money to help, and then we move on.

 

I’m sure a lot of us are into philanthropy and claim to be philanthropists, but when you help someone it has to be because deep down, the sole and main reason has to be because you want to fight against the injustice in the world, you want to help someone not because you want to make a difference in that person’s life only but because you want to make a change for future generations.

 

Don’t claim to want to make a change and do some deeds here and there for the sake of taking a picture and flaunting about it to the crowd. Do it because you would want someone to help you if you were in his or her situation. Do it because if you didn’t know the taste of meat, haven’t eaten for days, and have a body that is rotten and dried up of water you’d want someone to help you.

Do it because you want to, not because you think you have to.

 

With that said I hope you don’t throw out a bottle of water that is half full just because you think you’ve had enough, or throw out a plate that is half empty because your cow like stomachs are full.

I do admit that I am guilty of throwing out food all the time, and I am ashamed of it.

But I want to change, and I hopefully will.

I will stop shoving my face with food and will stop throwing out whatever is left.

You should too.

 

This however does not only concern food, but also other aspects of your life that can be altered for a favorable future for the people of today and the future.

 

Enough gibberish I will now go make me half a sandwich.

Goodbye.
