Paper Summary:

The writer uses ancient philosopher, Plato's "Republic" to illustrate why a just life is better than an unjust life. The paper shows how just and unjust is not as simple as dividing good from bad. It is a total package of choices that may take years to unfold and be seen for what it is. It shows that the just life is a life with honesty, virtue, and goodness as an underlying foundation of the life itself.

From the Paper:

"Leading a just life does not mean one have to purposely suffer, or pretend to suffer. It is acceptable to succeed and to believe that that success is more than the unjust may have. A just person is not required to be a martyr. It is a happier life and there is nothing wrong with feeling good about those choices. A just life is happier than an unjust life because the choices are something that makes the just person feel good about themselves. It allows them to build a reputation of trust and strong character among those they live with, work with and socialize with."
