Now I just feel like I should put on extra deodorant.
It's not. It's not always delivered in a way we'd want, but I like to think it's still possible. Nothing will bring back the dead, but giving some peace to those suffering and ensuring the person who did it can't do it again is something.
Might be one of those pesky realities that doesn't have a clear answer. Hate when those happen. Although there are usually some good sermons to be made out of them. Heard a lot at church.

One of many things I like about you.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-07 04:40 am (UTC)Okay, yes. Fair point.
Many hrm?

Date: 2025-04-07 10:51 am (UTC)See? Some lawyers try to be fair.
I'd lose count if I counted the ways.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-07 04:26 pm (UTC)Mostly just you.
Now you're just trying to make me blush.

Is it working?

Date: 2025-04-07 10:18 pm (UTC)Thankfully justice isn't always about who is loudest.
Yes.

Date: 2025-04-08 04:40 pm (UTC)I'd say it's more than something, sometimes it's the only thing people can hold onto while they grieve.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-09 10:44 am (UTC)All right, I'll stop. Yes, I know what you mean.
Hard for most of us to distinguish justice from revenge when it happens.

Date: 2025-04-09 04:59 pm (UTC)Do you ever think they can be the same thing?
no subject
Date: 2025-04-11 10:55 am (UTC)I'd be a lot wiser if I knew the answer to that question, I think. It's one I wrestle with all the time.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-11 04:29 pm (UTC)Same here, especially if it involves anyone I care about.

There's a lot of those. And I thought the church was big on black and white, clear right and wrongs.

Date: 2025-04-11 06:43 pm (UTC)Or does it further complicate it?
no subject
Date: 2025-04-11 06:47 pm (UTC)Sometimes both at the same time.
Do you consider yourself a person of faith? Just curious.

Date: 2025-04-11 07:55 pm (UTC)It would be hard not to when I've had a friend come back from the dead.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-11 09:32 pm (UTC)How did that work out? When it happened to me it turned out pretty shitty. Then again, there was a cult-like crime organization involved.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-11 10:35 pm (UTC)I wasn't there when it happened but from what she's told me it was very strange. I'm glad to have her back either way.
When you were brought back was it through magic? Or science?
no subject
Date: 2025-04-12 12:17 pm (UTC)I'm glad she's back then, and that she's still the person you knew.
Oh, it wasn't me. An old... I don't even know what to call her. Someone I knew came back once.
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 04:10 am (UTC)An old flame? Friend? Lover?
All of the above?
no subject
Date: 2025-04-13 12:07 pm (UTC)All the above and add in sometimes enemy and opponent.
