The adventures of a middle aged law student

what I want

One of the things I have liked the most about law school is the opportunity to discuss concepts and theory, jurisprudence and the impact of the law on the lives of fellow human beings. We are in danger though, of finding no time for such heady endeavors, as each of us puts our efforts into survival. But survival alone is an empty victory. I want more. There will NOT be time later for this. Now is the time to discuss the theory of law. Once graduated, we will of necessity focus on the Bar, and then we'll be headlong into the new adventures occasioned by our J.D. and passing the Bar, with no time to look back and savor the wonders we set aside in an earlier time. We must grasp life today, experience it now. There is no tomorrow.
