just like most people, i like it a lot when learning the law has hands-on practicability.

instead of invisible equitable interests and obscure operations of trusts, it was nice to be able to learn and then use, with effect.

i wonder whether it is a coincidence that most meaningful cultural days and festivals culminate in a full-moon night. tonight's is as big, as beautiful, that the midnight firmament looks like breaking dawn.

she must be up there all by herself. men worshiped her beauty, the stars pay homage to her countenance, while the meteors waved at her fleetingly.

i try not to paint a point of view with religious colours, because when we are ushered into our respective places of worship, we forget that we are humans, that we are fellow travelers to the grave.

besides, what exactly is a religious point of view? bertrand russell calls it the dogma and words uttered by ignorant men long dead.

maybe we should try to see mankind through humanitarian lenses, instead of trying so hard to justify that our childhood training was right all along.

that's the charm of religion: so much ink and blood spilled, yet we never learned our lesson.
