At Last, A Child in Law School

This morning, Joey, my eldest child, laid on the couch of my private office and solemnly declared:

This is serendipity. That I am in law school only now, 5 years after getting out of school and after establishing my business is the best time for law. This is what we can call in God's time, the best moment. I felt sad the first time I was not able to get in, right away. Now I see there is always a good reason behind everything.Things will always turn out better, as long as we do our best in every circumstance, even in apparent failure and disappointment.

What can a mother say hearing from her son such a deep wisdom and a deeper faith. And for me nothing matters now. What's beyond ordinary celebration and calling for thanksgiving to the Lord is that finally I have a son studying law. And I am very sure, my son will be a lawyer every mother can dream of having--a lawyer with a good heart; one who can contribute in building a just society--one case, one document, one counsel, one word,one act at a time.
