This day in history from:

My Work is my Penance

Just came home today from a meeting in the Ortigas district. It's a coordination meeting for the week ahead.

As I have Twitted/announced in Facebook, I have work starting today until Wednesday. I know, it's already Holy Week and yes, I know it's Sunday today. But as I have said before, for lawyer' there is no overtime, only all the time.

The job(s) at hand require(s) us to work today until Wednesday. I can't do anything about it. Fortunately, I will have a short reprieve on Tuesday, as it it Bea's birthday. But then, I may have to go to my consultancy in the morning. And then again, that's also work, albeit fatherly work.

But I sneaked in some time this morning with Bea to go to Trinoma. We bought her birthday gift there. We got a good deal on the beatbox she wanted for her birthday. We got the portable collapsing beatbox at almost half the price.

I also shopped around and got a new LCD monitor for the office. It's the cheapest Samsung LCD monitor I can find: a Syncmaster 663NW. Even if it's cheap, it looks very good and it approximates Olivia's monitor in size so it's more seamless to work on. I'm trying it out here at home first before I take it to the office.

But who knows? Maybe I'll like it too much I'll buy another one so I can have a dual-monitor set-up both at home and in the office.

Maybe if all the projects we are working on bear fruit for us, I may consider it. So I hope all of our projects prove to be rewarding.

May be my work this Holy Week is my penance. Who knows...

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.

I will delay no man for money or malice,
and will conduct myself as a lawyer

and discretion with all good fidelity
as well to the courts as to my clients;
and I impose upon myself this voluntary obligation

So help me God.
