A Toast to a Lucky Delusion

Today is my final official work day of 2021.  Tomorrow is a Firm holiday.  If I recall, and I might be wrong, it was on this day last year I informed those in charge of the shop at my old firm I was leaving, which departure I announced one week shy of completion of my 23rd year there.   

I end 2021 with much less trepidation than I began it.  Although the future is not guaranteed, my first year in my new firm has gone pretty well I think.  I have enjoyed it quite a lot.  I like the work and I have become acquainted with a terrific group of humans who also happen to be top-notch lawyers.  It keeps me ever mindful of my obligation to hold up my end.  My swipe card still grants me access to the building and when I type my password into the computer every morning, it fires right up.  So far, so good.  

I shall enter 2022 ever mindful of the fact that you are what your record says you are and that it is deeds and not words that matter.   The goal is to be better in the year to come than I have been this year.  




It is always good to have a goal.
