Ironically, Mr. B., little of what I work on these days involves a loan gone bad, although the case that's most bothersome right now is just that, but not from a traditional lending institution. Half the due diligence and twice the fun! Most of what I deal with is interpersonal stuff gone awry. Desperate people take desperate measures and do crazy things along the way. It's up to us to sort it out. It's like Judge Judy without the cameras and cussing. Oh, and throw some actual law in there as well.
Sorry for the thread drift. I've had a long couple of months at work and needed to vent.
Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
