Justice-Fairness, Right, and Wrong

Each of us has a sense of justice--our idea of what is fair, what is right, and what is wrong. This may be based on the constitution and written laws of our nation or state, religious teachings, or the by-laws and personnel handbook of the organizations we work on. We may adopt a more local or personal code of justice, such as the norms and customs of our parents or peer groups, our sense of trespass, or our own set of rules for living. Our own  values and beliefs also contribute to and are based on our own sense of justice. But of course these foundations for justice vary greatly in the guidance they provide and interpretations they are given. We each have our own personal experiences, recollections, and perceptions of what happened in any particular situation. This is further shaped by our own first-person point of view, motives, needs,, and goals. As a result, ideas of what is fair vary greatly from one person to the next, from on family to the next, from one culture to the next, from one nature to the next and from one situation to the next. The result is that two people, each claiming to be acting for a just cause can find themselves in a heated conflict strongly opposing each other.
