The name Peter Connelly is a name I never want to ever forget.  I never wish to forget his beautiful, angelic face with shining blue eyes beaming out into the world.  The day I learned of his story it leapt out to me from YouTube.  I cried for hours following his visit.

 and his extistence was never relevant until the end.  At the end many people stood in awe of how things could go so terribly wrong while we went about living our lives

Let Your Word Be Your Bond

In an economic and political period such as this in America, it is vital that your word be your bond. Where has integrity fallen on people’s list of values? Who are we as a country if lying is part of everyday living and interacting with people? I pose these questions after reading the Washington Post to discover that a former colleague, and someone I called a friend, was recently arrested and indicted on Federal bribery charges. Graham Aide's Arrest Rooted in Probe of D.C. Taxi Industry - washingtonpost.com I ask myself, who is this person to put his family, friends, and co-workers in such a perilous position.

A Path of Least Resistance

Taking the path that one's heart desires is what I must give myself permission to do.  What am I afraid of?  Why would I be afraid?  Don't I have the faith of a tiny mustard seed?  This is what I have always told myself.  But it is now that I intend to step out on faith and pursue my heart's desire to study law.  I must quiet the noise that says it is not the best to do because legal jobs are scarce.  I must know that this desire that has been planted in my heart was placed there for a reason.  Here I go, me and my 5-year old kindergarten, we are going to law school.  Now back to the LSAT I return..........
