Justice is fairness, equality, and evenness in contrast
to inequality, unjustness, bias, leaning, one-sidedness,
partiality, and injustice.

Justice is served, ideally, when the innocent are proven
innocent and set free, for example, and when the guilty
are proven guilty and consequently serve their just payment.

Justice is our choice on an individual, family, community,
society, city, state, company, nation, world, and/or any
other collective human level.

Justice is something that we as individuals can choose to
stand for and be responsible for on an individual, family,
community, city, state, society, company, nation, and/or
world level.

The rewards of choosing justice, working for it, building
it, being responsible for it, enforcing it, and being humble
before it are the rewards of honor, workability, security,
cooperation, partnership, service to humanity, contribution,
respect, love, unity, etc.

In other words, justice established and maintained effectively
increases human happiness and peace.

But if we break our agreement with ourselves and with others
based upon a foundation of justice then we fall from a state
of righteousness, respect, integrity, workability, grace,
and freedom to a state of ethical and spiritual debt ultimately
jailing and trapping ourselves within a fractured, separated,
and divided community, society, and world burdened heavily
with fear, hatred, crime, exploitation, violence, cruelty,
oppression, terrorism, and war.

In other words, justice diminished, abandoned, and denied
effectively increases human pain and suffering.
