Social Justice

Social justice encompasses economic justice. Social justice is the virtue which guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions. In turn, social institutions, when justly organized, provide us with access to what is good for the person, both individually and in our associations with others. Social justice also imposes on each of us a personal responsibility to work with others to design and continually perfect our institutions as tools for personal and social development.

First Wednesday:
According to the Center for Economic and Social Justice, "social justice is the virtue which guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions". When organized justly, social institutions provide access and information for the good of individuals and groups. Everyone has a personal responsibility to continually work with and design institutions as tools for social development. What are some examples of just or unjust social institutions that you know of? How can you get yourself or your friends involved with building these just institutions?

Fascination

Dedicated, hard-working, goal-oriented and creative.

What, I am asked, are my ideal personal attributes? A difficult question, I suppose, for anyone to ask themselves.
I am hard working and dedicated to the things I do. I cooperate well with others and get the job done. I like to challenge myself. I am creative and innovative.

My strengths now. Hm.
I can play the piano, am bilingual in Russian, and love to draw. I am ambitious in the areas I am challenged with.

Overlaps? Well they're almost the same: creative, hard working.
