Who ever invented the term "the wheel keeps turning", and why do we say it every time something goes wrong, or someone does something wrong to someone who didn't deserve it, especially us!? What the hell has the 'wheel' got to do with anything!? Has anyone ever thought of simply stopping the wheel and doing something about the problem right there and then? Why wait for the same snag in a wheel to serve justice, when we can bring down the gavel ourselves? After all, should we not be the ones running our own lives?
Now all of this may be true, however, sometimes the system just doesn't work that way does it...No it doesn't. When something bad happens in your life, or someone wrongs you, sometimes you simply just have to walk on by. While confrontation may solve the problem, too often it simply makes matters worse. Like justice...the point of justice is that it gets served one way or the other, otherwise taking the ideals of justice and applying it with our own hands is not called justice at all - it should then be called punishment. And the point of punishment is that it can be dished out to anyone, even the innocent, and generally has a limit set upon it. Either the sustainability of the punishment is not very lasting, or the mortality of the punisher soon becomes apparent. No, true justice is everlasting, and deals itself unto it's own guilty. And therefore can only be dealt by Justice herself, and so judged by a jury of the Fates and ones own conscience. But eventually, it does, one way or the other, get served.
However, there are times where we must place ourselves into the position of being vessels of Justice, and must act as its righteous hand. Because sometimes, yes sometimes, some people do not deserve to walk the slow road of Time and Fate, and must be dealt with sooner rather than later. It was recently that I learned - that every now and then, the 'wheel' must be forced to turn, and that those who are truly guilty and undeserving of the grace of Justice, must be shoved right under that wheel and be served a different type of justice - yes, sometimes people must be punished...
After all, even if we are wrong, the wheel as I am told, will simply...keep...turning.
