Slap On The Wrist OR An Iron Fist?

Slap On The Wrist OR An Iron Fist?

Much as we feel that the world WHERE we live in seems harsh and tough, WHAT's blatantly overlooked is that there are more Slaps On The Wrist than An Iron Fist seen OR witnessed flying!@#$%?  We would hear more CAUTIONS and WARNINGS that are broken down from first WARNING to final WARNING.  Frankly, I would welcome such structured escalations as it means, if you committed a misdemeanor, you could be dealt first at the local 'Koban' [the name of local police stations in Japan] before you are brought out to court.  BUT does everything and everyone deserve a SLAP ON THE WRIST instead of an IRON FIST???

There's this age-old practice as well that first infractions, WHATEVER it is, deserve to be meted with a SLAP ON THE WRIST.  I beg to disagree.  WHAT IF that first infraction is a serious offense?  WHAT IF that first exception led to unacceptable consequences [and that's besides talking about impugning a person's character OR causing any other collateral damages?  WHICH leads me to dip my hand into the cookie jars of those socialist states.  Of course, we WON'T give Norh Korea as an example😡😡😡

Heard of that incident WHERE the mother forgot to feed her infant son, WHO eventually starved and died?  She was NOT SLAPPED ON THE WRIST but instead meted with an IRON FIST translated into 65 years in prison.  WHEN the Harvard College Faith in Action [HCFA] was meted with a probation, many protested that it did NOT constitute as a punishment given the gravity of their case❌❌❌

Swinging back to our lives, we need to remain consciously aware that in a fair, just and equitable world, it's NOT even just either a SLAP ON THE WRIST OR an IRON FIST because between those extreme actions, there is a hodge-podge of iterations we need to consider.  And this is as relevant to law and order as it is in our daily lives.  Lesson here is that nothing is either black OR white.  On the other hand, in life, maybe more than 90% of circumstances and scenarios would fall somewhere within gray areas.  WHICH means, there is NO pre-scripted action we can take WHEN we are either wronged OR if it's us WHO caused the wronged.  Instead, the onus is on us to figure out the FINAL FIX [and NOT those palliative remedies good enough within those moments💥💥💥

Our takeaway:  More often in life, a lot of things fall in between cracks, either because of INACTION [by ignoring OR simply looking at the other direction] OR even by actions taken, actions that are either impertinent, inappropriate OR simply an action taken for the sake of taking that step.  Our lesson here is that, WHEN and WHERE we need to slam things with our IRON FIST, as long as that is warranted, then, lower down the boom by all means.  The last thing we want to happen is regretting because of our intentional INACTION😡😡😡
