Day 365 – Day 54

A few weeks ago I was taking random photographs of Kathy and friends at a painting class, and Josh approached me.  He asked if I shoot portraits.  Having recently changed law firms, he wanted a picture that was much more “approachable” than his formal studio head shot.  “Sounds like fun,” I replied.   We exchanged information and went on our way.

Today after work we met and took a handful of photographs.  There were two things I instantly admired after spending more time with Josh:  1) He’s a very upbeat, considerate person.  2) He recently left a big national firm to join a small local one.  Why?  As a tax lawyer, he now has the opportunity to help individuals for whom tax technicalities or unfavorable tax law are bearing down on them.  In other words, he can make a tangible difference in individual lives.  He beamed from ear to ear telling me about this change.  Personal satisfaction goes far beyond money, as we all know, but you have to love someone with the courage to leave the “big leagues” for something much more fulfilling.
