I am facing existential crisis for few months now. I am a single child of a single parent (mother), Father was out of world in 2009. Now my mother is retired from teaching job (pvt).
I am not facing financial challenge as we have rented our fiest floor which is sufficient for monthly bills.
But my circumstances make me think, is this it ? Is this life ? Is this what I studied law for ? To play small-time my whole life ? Even marriage is out of scene because of low earning in litigation. Imagine, a litigating lawyer left all alone and just coasting through life. Scary, right ?
I need perspective. Help me out !
1st chose law
And then litigation.
You might have gone for an in house job.
