it’s such a relief when your soul no longer clings to an unattainable person. when your heart has come to accept that your fate was only meant to collide for a brief moment in time. you finally let go of their hand. and get on...with your big wonderful life

“… unlike engineers, we construct no bridges. Unlike doctors, we mend no bones. Unlike architects, we design no buildings. Unlike artists we paint no portraits. There is little that we do that the human hand can touch. But - if we are doing our jobs properly - we take on other people’s burdens, we relieve stress, we pursue justice. We enable mankind to live a more peaceful and just life. We take the veneer of civilization and we make it a little thicker.”

Ronald D. Rotunda, “Legal Ethics: The Lawyer’s Desk Book on Professional Responsibility”
