Our 6 yr old just called it “Lost” School (instead of “Law” School) & honestly, the more I think about this profession, the more I realize: he’s not wrong.🤔

"Clarity isn't about knowing what you want to do with your life, it's about knowing what you want to do this week. You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to know your next step." -@JamesClear

Do you rate the success of your therapy session by the number of times you made your therapist laugh? I aim for twice per session but who’s counting.

It’s always a treat when you speak to an opposing counsel for the first time & realize they’re not a jerk. Just because our clients hate each other doesn’t mean we can’t have a civilized conversation about how to get the case done AND wish each other a nice weekend.

Me: Ok lights out, no more talking, you’re well past your bedtime. 9 yr old: Can I just ask you one more question? Me:… 9 yr old: Have you ever thought about where we were, as beings in space & time, before we were born?
