We all say things like, “they shouldn’t do that,” or “it shouldn’t be that way,” but what should life look like? What is righteousness, and how can we affirm it while dealing with the ways we fall short? Jesus shows us in this beatitude that living the good life are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness.
