Tom- You raise a good issue and it's certainly something I have wrestled with, as have most attorneys I know, as we all try to balance work/play/family obligations. I have enjoyed reading other attorneys responses to your email. When I first started getting practicing and getting the state Bar Bulletins , I'd turn first to the disciplinary proceedings and then the obits. It seemed so sad to me to see so many attorneys die relatively young with their boots on their desk. Some I know were busting their keister so they could retire in comfort and then reconnect with family. As a partner in a large law firm told me after seeing me joyously chase our spirited 2 yo around an interisland ferry while his mother ran an NGO, retirement is often too late a time to reconnect and I should really appreciate the time I was spending with family. That stuck with me. 

Can't help noticing you replied on a sunny weekend, much less a holiday. Hope that's how you really wanted to spend your time 😊. Thanks, Cy

After 45 years of watching the toll lawyering has taken on many of my colleagues, it is disturbing to continue to receive  this section’ s postings every Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and every Saturday and Sunday. Think about it.  Let’s all get a life.
