life in law school

I have to admit , life in law school has not been all rosy. As i am now in my final year i just want to take time to thank the Lord for taking me this far. He has always been there and i thank him for that. I have had occasion to meet different distinguished people in my life through law school and for that I am grateful. There have been hiccups here and there but through it all i have gotten to realize who my true friends are and which ones are not. In law school, i have also learnt that all that glitters is not gold and that sometimes it is good to keep your mouth shut and avoid arguments with foolish people. I have also learnt to go for what i want and also not to take in everything that is said to me as gospel truth. My friend always tells me not to take everything as gospel truth. She is what many might call a reserved person but to me she is chitty chatty and is always there for me through my highs and lows. I have experienced tremendeous grace in law school and i just want to thank the Lord for it. When many of my class mates failed a course that was perceived to be hard , the Lord made sure i sailed through. For that I am truly thankful. It cannot be said that i am more intelligent than the rest of the people that failed, well no, but it has just been this thing called undeserved favour. In all my years in law school, i have also realized that life is what you make it and that if one chooses to think of themselves as inferior to others they are merely doing a deservice to other people. It has been an eyeopener and i must say i have learnt a lot and i will use what i have learnt to empower others. It has been a roller coaster ride indeed. What with the long queues for registration and the constant hustle for accommodation on campus. It has been a long road. I have cherished every moment i have spent on that campus though i believe that a lot needs to be improved there. I am glad because i went through many obstacles in life and they have shaped me to be a better person than i was back then. I now know that common sense is not that common . I have also learnt that not everyone has the best intentions at heart when they wish to help you. I have also realised that some people are as egoistical as Kanye West. In all my learning , i know one thing : I want to make a difference.

Like Michael Jackson sang , Im looking to the woman in the mirror and i am asking her to change this world. I am starting with myself

Start with the person in the mirror as well. Make the changes
