Take Your Work Seriously But Be Joyful in Your Play

What follows below is a wonderful tribute by Ryan Park for The Atlantic on Ruth Bader Ginsburg.  Ryan is an attorney based in Durham, North Carolina, and a former law clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justices David H. Souter and Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

As Ryan says, Justice Ginsburg’s legacy belongs to all of us.  He goes on to say, "But no matter how seriously she took the work, she was always joyful in her play."

It buoys me to see people inspired to carry forward her vision of a more equal and just society. She would have expected no less. And if she were still here, she’d reassure us with a smile and a hug, and tell us to get to work.

Read the entire article, "My Friend and Boss, Ruth Bader Ginsburg."
