The moment I reached the last years of my school life, the first thing that everyone asked me was about the fate of my future.. what I would do in life and what career I would pursue? I have been thinking about this matter for a prolonged period of time and now I wish to succeed in life as a lawyer.
I am a staunch believer in justice and I respect the freedom of each human being as an individual. This has been one of the foremost reasons which has compelled me to pursue such a career. Though the India of today is indeed an independent nation, the freedom fighters could however not restore freedom to each and every individual Indian citizen. Ever since we got freedom, India has been ravaged by various social, religious, political, and economic evils.
Corruption is at its peak and it has become a sin to do good in this nation. Everywhere, corruption is at its prominent best! The police-men, ministers, traders, businessmen and even the various authorities are corrupt. This has made it impossible for any innocent to seek justice in the name of Law.
Thus, I wish to become a lawyer and I shall strive to eradicate all these evils from the nation. Though the efforts of just one lawyer may seem very small, I firmly believe in the saying that "Drops of water make a sea"! Thus, I wish to be that one drop of water in this sea and cleanse the country of all its difficulties and hardships! I sincerely believe I can change the world and I shall always strive forward to achieve this goal that I have set for myself!
Many people have often told me to become an Engineer or a Doctor since the earning oppportunities are more out there. But if I do so, then I'll be following a path where only my Mind shall lead me. Money doesn't matter if you do not enjoy the task you have at hand. If I become a lawyer, then my Mind, Heart, Body, and Soul shall all lead me and thus success shall guarantee at each step! It is with this belief that I want to step out into the society with a view to change the world!
I hope my honest views help me pave my path into this world and etch out a living to help the society. My motto is my goal: "... And Justice For All".
