What is Justice?
Practicing justice is being fair in everything you do. It is seeing with your own eyes and not judging something or someone on what other people tell you. Being just is standing up for your rights and the rights of other people. It is taking responsibility if you make a mistake and making amends. Justice means that every person’s rights are protected.
Why Practice it?
Without justice the world can be a cruel and dangerous place . People are judged by their race, their religion or their sex. When justice is practiced everyone has a fair chance of being seen for who they are. If someone is accused of something they get a chance to tell their side. With justice, everyone gets a fair share.
