26 and graduating

It can be an interesting time. For me, it’s been a period of deep introspection. You begin to question a lot of your own decisions. How you lived your life, whether you made the right choices, and what you want next. One of these decisions I made was to go to law school. Over the years, I’ve had many doubts about my decision to attend. Today, I was reviewing a contract for some of the stuff I’m currently working on. I needed some help, so I called an old friend who I interned for last summer. You could say he was my legal mentor. As we went through the contract, I began to see some value in the legal training I received. It was a nice feeling. This happened in another instance today as well. I guess as you grow older, you begin to realize you can’t really plan for what’s next, that you’re going to make mistakes, that so are the other people in your life, that sometimes what you feel was the wrong decision was the right one, and at the end of the day, if you’re trying your best, it doesn’t really matter. After all, you’re only human.
