Is there such thing as justice?


Adultery, backstabbing, lying, greed, vandalism, murder, assault, molestation, fraud, crime… Do people actually get away with the things they do that are extremely immoral? I’m sure many of them do, however I think justice can be a misconception.



Many people go through life getting away with immoral deeds. There are millions of records of unsolved crimes, more than likely millions of people who cheat on their spouses routinely, often personal items are stolen, identities taken and the list goes on.


When not subjected to the law, often one talks about karma or that God will judge them upon their last hour. I think it’s all matter of opinion. However, I question the idea that everyone who does evil deeds eventually receives justice.


I think justice is a misconception and that true justice should come from within an individual to have the desire to change, to actually change, to ask for the forgiveness of others to whom they have affected and ultimately do what is right. Unfortunately, such a world does not exist. Nevertheless, I think it seems only right that a person would desire to change so that they can prove to themselves they is still a good person inside. It's then they can pick up as a new person and rediscover themselves as having a new life.
