So I was thinking about the future today..about all the things I can achieve, all the things I can become. My friends who know me as a lawyer will always say..Ivy one day u will make a good SAN or a judge. The ones who know me as a writer, will say you are a magician with a pen, you are going to make a best selling book someday..then theres Teejay, my film making friend whom we have talked about movies together, edited a screen-script or two together, he will always say, when are u going to ditch law and come join the film industry? Then again those who have heard one or two songs I have written, and sang, who have been there at the beginning.. heard me drop a lyrics or two..listened to my Demo, will look at me in surprise when they hear m practising law, what about the music? They will exclaim Truth is I luv the legal profession. If I could do it all again it will still be law. I luv masturbating with words on a sheet of paper. I luv the oral prowress the profession entails. I luv having to outwit another, set pitfalls and traps, just with words. I remember the orgasmic feeling when I got my job, walked into the library and saw all of those law books, the knowledge hidden in them that I was going to discover..the feeling was inexplicable. I wanted to kiss everyone of them But when I think about my life, I feel there have to be more than wearing a long flowing robe and wig. There have got to be more than law books and law reports. There have got to be something out there to explore, something challenging to achieve. There have got to be more of the world I can see. I cant be everything I want to be, some dreams have to be given up to make others come true but I know I want to be something more than that lady lawyer. I want to leave my foot print on the sands of time, a print so engraved that the oceans cant wash away. When m gone, I want the world to know that i was here..I lived, I was dynamic and I died. Most importantly when m old, I want to look back at my life, run my mind through the moments of days passed, nod my head and smile hell, this is a life well lived
