Death dealing healer

People seem to have this idea in mind that it's the right thing to do to be just. They also have the idea that it however does not profit them as much as it would if they where unjust. They remain righteous for promises of rewards in the here after and not to lose face. I belief this is highly incorrect thinking. It is much more profitable to be just, if for nothing other then for the sec of justice. I will try to help others to see this also. I have had a change in heart, well better to say in mind. The change of heart happened awhile ago but took sometime to get to my head. I can't be part of the FBI or CIA. I don't belief I could ever be a cop or person in the army now. I can't kill my fellow man. People, hack I try to reason to my self that an evil man should die so others may not suffer. But I would find an easier time killing a righteous man than an unrighteous one. For the sec of that the righteous man's soul would at least be fine in the afterlife. Where as if a killed a man in his sins I would be damning him if you will. Now I don't know if I really could not take another persons life for I am a very passed person. And as such easily get caught up in the situation. I also have not worked out all the rights and wrongs for defending myself and others. For I could easily lay down my life in hopes that it my help others. But I can not offer others. Would should one do if ones family is threatened. Surly, one must defend but what is more important the temporal safely or an eternal example. These are thoughts that attacks my mind on ever ocation.

I find it hard to read my textbooks and study my classes, yet I find it very easy to read books like The Republic or Humanity. These are not easy reads and with my disabilities it takes me a very long time to read even a few pages. I find how ever that since I am doing it for myself that I get two things from it. First and for most is knowleage, the second is a person goal fulfilled. I am trying to make my self a better person on my own and by reading these books it gives my a little pat on my emotion shoulder. If this is the cause why is not school the same way? What am I going to school for if not to learn and better myself so I can better help others. I believe it comes down to laziness. Oh the things that I could do if I could just wake up to my potential. It's like the song says
"and I can't help the feeling
I could blow thought the ceiling
if I could just turn around
and it wears me out
it wears me out"

Hey - glad you finally caved in to peer pressure. You are now an official member of the elite nerdy bloggers society of BYUH. Go nerds!

I appreciate your thoughts on justice. I heard this quote a long time ago:

"The rain, it raineth on the just.
And also on the unjust.
But mostly on the just:
because the unjust stealeth the just umbrellas."

Hope that made you feel smarter. *grin* Keep writing. I'll be a loyal fan. [HUGS]

I am glad that you have found the power within yourself to better who you are. And I can understand completely what you say about how it's hard to make a decision that will affect another person, whether great or small. I've thought about it quite a bit myself and I feel that, truly, this is one of those where there is no right or wrong answer. One just has to hope that they don't have to make the kind of decision that would mess everything up. And the whole thing with school...well, that happens to me every day which is why I'm so behind. I don't know why exactly it is that way for me, but I've been told by people trying to help me that it isn't actually laziness or anything like that per se, it's interest. Whether or not you truly care about something and how much you are interested in it will determine how much effort you are willing to put in. Okay, enough of that, this is getting long. But I said I'd comment didn't I? And this is just the first one I've read!! :)
