Lawyers As Healers
By Nadia S. Ballas-Ruta, Esq of www.HappyLotus.com
When I began my first year at law school, many of the second year students warned me that my way of looking at things would change by the end of the year. I never understood what they were talking about until later that spring. Someone told me that they would talk to me later and I found myself trying to analyze what did later mean. Did it mean in a few hours, a few days or maybe later was another way of saying never again. It was at that moment that I realized the power of a legal education.

Excerpt:
"I see the positive in any situation which people think means that I am flaky. Bring in the fact that I am a vegan and have the spiritual journey background and I can understand that these traits do not seem lawyerly. As one friend said to me: “I could see you more easily in one of those holistic healing places than at a law firm”.
