The new lawyers of Vigan who just passed the 2006 Bar Examinations are truly sources of inspiration. I was particular struck by the message of Atty. Glenn Romano.
A fellow Tomasian, this young man from Barangay IV articulated his experiences in life, having been raised from a not so well-off family, he pointed out that he knows how is it to be poor. For him, poverty is injustice. This is the reason why he wanted to become a lawyer so he can become an instrument in addressing this social malady. He wants to prove that there are poor people who can become lawyers and poverty is never a hindrance in attaining one's dream.
