When I was a young child, I had lofty dreams. I dreamed of a grand wedding, of a nice house with a huge garden, of an enormous library filled filled with the books I want, of a chic law office... Of a law office. I have always wanted to be a lawyer. I cannot remember how young I was when I started day dreaming about being a trial attorney -- defending especially women's causes. Thirty years after, here I am. Sadly, none of those childhood dreams have come true yet.
Next week, I will be a year older and those dreams have not much changed. So two nights ago (yes, just two nights ago), I made up my mind. I decided that I will keep inching my way to reach those childhood dreams. Thanks to that inexplicable, unfathomable Power/ Force that roused me from a state of despondency. So while I'm at it, I will persist.
At this point, I do not yearn for much anymore, save for that last item in my list. That of being a lawyer.
No time to lose. On with the fight. I've a battle to win.
