Dignity, is honour, respect, self esteem and contentment. Labour definitely is not pain, suffering or hardship. As i slept last night,through my sub consciousness, i pondered over the fact that, i studied Law as my first degree but never practised. I am more inclined to jobs that would enable me show affection towards other people. A smile a day would do.
Haven said that, one would think i would practise law, just to put a smile on someone's face or rather be instrumental in breaking a home, or bring sorrow to homes where joy resides. Often people ask me why i decided to re-qualify into the finance sector? And my answer has never changed, it has remained same for as long as i knew i could not go into practice.
Question: Why did you study law, yet decide to re-qualify as an accountant?
Answer : My conscience and guts are not solid enough for the job.
Question: So, is your conscience strong enough for accounting?
Answer : Well, at least i will help people save money, pay them and essentially would always try to put smiles on their faces.
I know that most people still do not get it. As a prosecutor,how sure are you that the accused has truly committed the crime?. As a defence lawyer, how sure are you that , your client is not guilty of the crime? How true to reality are the evidences and witness statements you are building your case upon. As a conveyance lawyer, you have to tweak documents, so as to save your clients some money as well as get higher mortgage lender bargain. As an immigration lawyer, how sure are you that the gory stories are true? You tweak lots of documents. As a family lawyer, how sure are you that either of the couple is not lying, especially your own client? There are so many of these speciality fields that do not conform with my conscience. I abide by laws, rules and regulations to the best of my ability and knowledge.
To all practising lawyers, i give KUDOS to you all, as i know that sometimes, you would experience sleepless nights, simply because of the dark cloud of uncertainty hovering over a case. Yet, some how, you always still find a way to carry on, and see the case to a reasonably conclusive end . Be it the "GUILTY" or "NOT GUILTY" verdict. To you their is still dignity in your labour, and to me as well i retain my ultimate dignity in labour.
Whatever, your profession is, always be upright and retain your self esteem, for no matter how low paying, you think your job or profession is, i tell you what.......there are millions out there with neither a job nor a penny, yet their dignity is priority.
"Always put your dignity first before anything and not your pride, as pride comes before fall. But with dignity, you will walk tall, with your pride by your side and not on your shoulders...."
