That Life Changing Moment

Have you ever had that moment of clarity that your life will never be the same as it was before?

I stopped for a moment yesterday as I realized something. On May 5th I will turn 25. On May 7th I will attend my graduation ceremony for Law School. On May 8th one of my best friends will move to Kansas. On June 1st I officially start my career on salary.

I was actually getting stressed out about exams and was putting off my schoolwork, but after that moment of clarity I found a new surge of energy.

Life is about to start for me.

How bout you guys?

Ever have a moment where things were forever gonna be different and it all made sense?

    Once I graduate I hope I have that moment.

    Right now I'm just trying to enjoy life now because it's going by fast.

    Once I got into to college, I did terrible the first quarter. It was then that I realized if I didn't get my shit together I'd end up with a shitty dead end job in my hometown or something. The best I could hope for is finding a decent paying job doing menial labor. I then remembered how much I hated being a mechanic and decided to apply myself.

    I'm slightly less lazy about school work now.

    Neither high school nor undergrad graduation was a very big deal for me.

    I'm guessing law school will be a bigger one, but got a couple years to go.

    Munkus

    the idea that your life is going to "start" then is one I caution you against

    yeah, things are going to change like crazy, and you're definitely starting a new chapter

    but it took every stupid mistake, every shitty thing that ever happened to you, every victory and failure and long boring day you've had so far to get you to this point

    don't forget that

    I remember vividly how I was beat up cut down and spit out by life and then somehow managed to crawl to the bottom of a law school class and sneak out with a job.

    I love doing legal work. You have no idea. I absolutely love everything about it. I love researching and learning the law that I am going to use to practice. I love writing actual documents that will be filed in actual court. I love preparing a client for court, interviewing a client, then reinterviewing the client because that cocksucker was lying to me before and goddammit don't lie to me man.

    I love the utter preparation that is involved with making a case. Entering a room and knowing every single possible outcome. Knowing every argument, every objection, every single iota of evidence and witness testimony. I love knowing that, standing up in front of the court, and telling the defendant to answer only the question I am asking. This is a cross son, just answer es or no. Yes. Or. No. Do not explain. Yes or no.


    Thank God.
