I returned to school today after a three week holiday. I was nervous about going back, although I couldn't really pinpoint why. Once I got there, back in class with my friends and profs, I felt like I was home. I remembered how much I truly enjoy what I'm learning.
The music of my heart includes the bang of the gavel, the melody of a well planned opening statement, the climaxing conversation between advocate and witness, and the triumphant beat of a winning argument.
Sometimes I feel silly for having such a passion about what I'm learning. It is a passion I hide inside that swirls in the depths of my being. I don't allow myself to show my excitement since people will probably think I am more crazy than I already am, and because "there are no feelings in the law".
At least that's what I'm told. Repeatedly.
The truth is, people are feeling people. And, since we work with people, there will be emotion in everything we do. It's the law itself that is emotion-less.
This is a concept I am still working on... :)
In other news, I'd like to own this shirt. Ha ha!
