I have found myself in a position lately of not having adequate words to soothe people. I have friends who are unemployed, friends who have taken out huge loans and are having trouble sorting out their finances, friends who are struggling through their parents' divorce and so on. What can I possibly say to these people to make them feel better? My "I'm sorry"s and "It will get better" just don't seem enough anymore. If only I had a magic wand. As I listen to people I love struggle I can't help but feel like I'm very blessed while also feeling very spoiled. What do I have to complain about? Honestly? So law school is hard. Big deal. All these other people are struggling through circumstances beyond their control. Law school was my own choice.
To all my friends and loved ones, I'm sorry I have nothing better to offer. Just know I'm thinking of all of you and wish desperately I could help.
