Justice is described by Catholics as a 'Cardinal Virtue'.
It's something that is so important that I'm called to repeatedly
put it into practice if I am to live a good life.

Being just is something I try to get into the habit of being.
It doesn't always come naturally, and sometimes I really
have to pray for the strength to do the right thing.

Many people outside of my Church choose to live this way
too, but my motivation for striving to live this way is rooted
in my belief in and love of God. Besides, I don't think I
could do it on my own without God's help! |

How fair and just are you in your relationships and dealings
with others? |

I don't feel I can live my life just as a passive observer.
I can't turn my back on those in need and it's my duty to
try to help them as I can. I also believe that it's my responsibility
to speak out if I see an injustice. There's no point always
expecting someone else to put things right! |
