This post might seem only applicable to my girls out there, but it really isn't.
We all have easier routes to employment than law school. Am I right?!
This song is about not wanting a seemingly easier life, wherein you achieve less than your full potential.
If you took an easier route...
Maybe there would always be a part of you that felt fettered—restricted from doing more or being more.
Maybe there would always be a part of you that wondered if you were capable of more.
Maybe you would pine for the certainty that you can stand on your own two feet.
Maybe you would live with an unquenchable desire to help people in the manner you felt most impactful.
Fill in the blank for your own reason(s) why you are in law school.
I only know that you are not here for the easy route.
In other words, you are not here just to sit still and look pretty.
Lyrics you might like:
Oh, I don't know what you've been told
But, this gal right here's gonna rule the world
Yeah, that is where I'm gonna be
Because I wanna be
No, I don't wanna sit still look pretty
You know, deep down, you don't just want to sit still and look pretty.
So, don't.
Dig deep, and get after it!
