"It turns out I succeeded. I have made my mark in the legal world, passed the bar exam, and secured a full-time position."
"My mom was overjoyed. She rushed over to celebrate, rented a luxurious hotel lobby, invited many friends and business partners, and even had the waiters set up a champagne tower, letting me pop the champagne with a small knife."
"That banquet was filled with joy and laughter, and it remains one of the proudest memories of my life."
"But that wasn't the end of it. After the celebration, my mom offered me a position at her company as legal counsel."
"I took the job, reconciled with my mom, and let go of past grudges. Life finally seemed to have turned a corner."
