Why law?


          This is a question I myself kept pondering on, I always knew a path of being a lawyer is as grueling as I could imagine, but then it goes the same way on literally any other career. It's funny because when I was young, I always thought I wanted to be an engineer, I was always fascinated at how buildings, roads, bridges, towers, hotels, and houses were built, the blueprints at which an engineer works on has everything that they need to create structures as they desire, or maybe I just thought that I liked to be an engineer because of an unintentional pressure placed on me as adults kept asking what I want to be in the future and all I could think of was to be an engineer because it was popular at the time and everyone wants it because it's also a high paying job, but who cares at this point...


          So I had to find something else I could be fascinated about, it wasn't easy but I should be fine on anything so long as it doesn't revolve around math. Maybe it's just me but 2020-2022 are my most adored years, because that's where I knew more of myself, and of course, what I want to be in the future, a lawyer. I thought of it for a long time, and I have formulated answers, being a lawyer means being a defender and upholder of justice, an ally of the people who seeks and demands justice to be brought down upon the wicked. Pursuing law means a deeper understanding of laws that are a fundamental foundation of our society, and what creates order upon the nation. I'm not too sure why but, I also like to debate with people, I found it really fascinating to question everything and all because of Socrates, so being a lawyer cannot be more of a perfect job that I want and need, it being quite a high-paying job is also a bonus, hehe.
