I had two hearings today, and I have to admit it that it is so emotionally draining.
The best attorneys maintain both a detached aloofness from their client's cases so they can be objective and see things from all sides, yet have some affinity for the case so they can empathize and feel the pain, the justice and the validity of the case. Easy said, hard to do.
My problem is that it really tears me up, the struggles and difficulties others must deal with--problems that are overwhelming. It's not easy to be cold and calculating in such situations.
Most of us are so blessed to have so much: security, freedom, liberty, sufficient material comforts, good health and appreciative companionship. Cherish what you have, do what you can to bring joy to others.
