Sunday Reflection: The Reunion
I have spent the weekend in New Haven for my law school reunion. It was a pretty remarkable time, reconnecting with people who have been very important in my life, in a lot of different ways. It's still surprising to me that I'm a part of this group, but the truth is that in a way I always fit in, in the ways that matter.
After talking to these friends who have gone on to do so many different things, it makes me think about vocation. Most-- but not all-- of us found a vocation, work that feeds our heart and meets the needs of the world. Some might still do that. Life is that way.
I was struck by how kind people were with each other at this point in life-- not something that necessarily marked the way we were in law school (unfortunately, I know that I was someone who was not always kind). It made me feel a lot of hope about what is to come.
