The
first three-day summer weekend has gone by so fast! I enjoy my new job so it is not too bad going
back to work tomorrow. But I hope I will
never become those who “live to work” because while I enjoy working, I only
want to work to make a decent living. A
job should not define your goals in life and definitely not equate to your
happiness.
Actually
I was interviewed for a position with an Intellectual Property law firm the
same week I was offered the position with my current firm. The
recruiter told me that I was one of the top three candidates for consideration
with the IP firm. I decided to accept
the position with my current firm. I
sure am glad I did. The IP position
would require that I worked on Sunday and at “crazy” hours to accommodate oversea
clients (England/Germany or China/Japan).
While IP is a very prestige area of law, I don’t regret my
decision. I believe I am where I am
supposed to be.
We
went to Mass this morning. There was
only Memorial Day Mass and I was disappointed that there were not as many
people as I thought there should be.
After Mass, we saw a couple who received special blessings from the
priest for their 60th wedding anniversary. We only have 35 more years to get there!
This
cake is located in a walking path between the Courthouse and the Police
Department. The Police Department is
across the Courthouse. My office is
about three short blocks from there. The
sculptures are great and thoughtful tribune to the police officers and firefighters.
To
all the men and women of our Armed Forces, thank you for your services. To those who gave their lives, our gratitude
for the freedom you provided.
