Two Things in My Thoughts

FYI: The previous blogpost was for fun. Haha... ~You know what I mean~

Anyway, the more serious thoughts that I've having these days are these two questions:

1) The value of life

I just started doing death cases. I think life is really fragile... it can go any point in time. And its the people left behind who would feel the loss. So live life to the fullest! What does that mean to me? It means not holding on to the temporary, living honorably, loving the people around, not holding on to the petty things like anger, bitterness, jealousy, etc. Basically all these are nicely elaborated in the bible! I hope to live the life that God has intended for me to live. =)

Anyway, value the life that you have. No matter how bad things may get, life is not yours. It belongs to God and partly to others as well. I think when one person dies, the person brings away part of another person's life.

2) The cost of justice

What is justice? Is it worth the cost? Who can determine who is right and who is wrong? I've concluded that truly truly, human level of justice is imperfect and merely the tip of the iceberg of what TRUE justice is. Re-emphasizes the point that only God is able to be the final, consistent, fair and able judge.

Anyway, it's really costly to have justice in this world - both monetary and in terms of time and effort. And if justice is costly even at the human level, imagine the cost of true and pure justice! I think that's why the cost of God's justice is Jesus. I can't understand it, but that's because I'm just human :P
