John Reaves: I’ve often heard people say that the first third of your life you’re growing up and getting educated. The second third of your life you’re raising kids and developing your career, and the last third of your life you’re wise enough to give back and able to give back. And maybe I had a bell go off when I was fifty but I realized that I’d developed a good set of skills as a lawyer and that I was involved in all the head-butting that comes with litigation in an adversarial system and I wasn’t doing what I’d originally hoped to do which was to get involved with public interest and environmental areas, well that knock on the door came, so to speak, with my consciousness and I said “what the heck are you doing?”
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article.
