Many lawyers, it seems, have a God-complex- the unshakable belief that they are infallible, supremely powerful, or superior to others. [Spoiler alert: It's a myth]. But this firm belief- that they can extract what they want, from who they want, when they want- is the core of the extraction machine, which delivers systemic injustice through abuse of the legal system.

Cicero said, "The worst kind of injustice is to look for profit from injustice." And across centuries, the same warnings of the ancient repeat: justice erodes the moment power learns it can cloak its self-interest in the language of law. And people still seek access to justice, yet sometime find only injustice in the legal system.

Finding meaning in suffering seems a little counterproductive. Suffering is what you want release from, yet by finding meaning in it, you hold onto it, putting it at the centre of your life, your identity. Yet finding meaning in suffering can be one of the most cathartic experiences.

Justice, Cicero’s "mistress and queen of all the virtues," now depends on its interpretations, and the interpretation of justice depends on who the interpreter is. Judges and lawyers, the purveyors of justice, are vital cogs in the wheels of justice, and we rely on them to interpret justice- ethically and honestly.

Greed wasn’t a thing when the first group in the hominid species broke away to form the homo sapiens clan, probably about 300-400 thousand years ago. However, AI is creating an increasingly uneven and unbalanced world, one where the greedy thrive at the expense of the generous rest. Our survival is no longer about need- it’s about greed. And there are two distinct sides emerging in the human race. What is Greed? Greed, an insatiable and selfish desire for something, especiall

It also makes sense that we are subconsciously driven by the human desire to connect with others- perhaps the human soul's desire is to attempt to return to oneness, to the one single cell with a particular place in the cosmos. So we reach out to other humans to connect with them for a while, before fears and tears drive us apart again, despite having a genetic link to every other human, and every other life form on Earth.

Medically, being human means possessing the complex biological and genetic makeup of the species Homo sapiens, characterized by a highly developed brain and a unique, complex genome. It's a broad, subjective description, expanded upon by philosophers to include unique capacities such as reason, consciousness, and creativity. These qualities led to the development of language, culture, and complex societies. Yet many non-human species have these same philosophical qualities of

Every single child deserves to be treated with dignity. It's their absolute human right. But as a human who enjoys rights, some duties limit these rights, although these duties only emerge as they age.

Values, the principles by which we live, come in all forms, but the value of terminal values —that include happiness and inner peace —is at the core of who we are, and can redirect our fate. What Are Values? The word “value” also has many meanings- each equally valuable: Value: The regard that something is held to deserve, or the importance, worth, or usefulness of something. Something of value has merit or worth. Value: The principles or standards of behaviour based on that

Over millions of years, humans evolved from a single cell. Then, over a relatively short span of time, the "Greatest Generation," who built lives around a value system, and were renowned for their stoicism, selflessness, and willingness to sacrifice for the greater good (but left out large part of the global population), morphed into the tech-savvy Gen Z, who value diversity and inclusivity, with a strong sense of social justice, yet many "me." build their personal ecosystem

Human beings are wanderers and wonderers. But where did it all begin, and where will it all end? Charles Darwin's theory that all life on Earth evolved from a single cell, arguably around 3 billion years ago, is widely accepted by scientists and anthropologists. Archeologists also support this through their findings. But 'evolved' is a complex, sometimes loaded, word. The Darwinian school of thought goes further, indicating that modern humans (Homo sapiens) originated in Afri
