I feel absolutely paralyzed right now as I sit in my office knowing that I'll be leaving my job next week.  My 15 months at my current law firm has been an interesting roller coaster of emotion.  I've experienced great challenge and excitement practicing law for the first year.   I've also experience absolute frustration and difficulty, feeling like I'm not where I need to be.  I still want to practice law because I feel like I've been gifted to do it well and that I'm passionate for the cause of justice.  I feel like as a lawyer I've been equipped to deal with the root causes of injustice in our society.  Yet I feel so far from actually seeing myself bear fruit in this area. 

I only hope and pray that when my last day is over and I step into the great unknown that God will guide my path and open a door for me to a more fulfilling practice area.  Time for more transition in my life.  But then again the only constant in life is change, right?

I think the apple stands for the sin of corporate greed and bondage that he is trapped in... or maybe he just likes apples.

I disagree. Poop is pretty constant in life.

Oh, here's a couple of ideas. Go into real estate law, and struggle to end segregation in LA. Go into immigration law and struggle to reform crippling laws. Anywhere you go when fighting for justice, it'll be just that, a struggle. I pray for a Godly support group as you fight this uphill battle. WEeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

Good to know that there's still lawyers out there that believe in the cause instead of the $$$. You're going to be a great lawyer throughout your career, and will no doubt make some law firm or public agency and their clients extremely happy. Have fun in New York this holiday season!
