The Idealawg and Life at the Bar are conspiring to start The Secret Society of 
Happy Lawyers, but it looks like some secrets may soon come out. How about opening the VALVE of Happiness as a rite of initiation? The VALVE is a code that stands for:
- Vision. Happy lawyers have a vision of a better world and a better Self.
- Attitude. Happy lawyers have an attitude that enables them to meet daily challenges with courage and grace.
- Love. Happy lawyers share love for people that inspires their service.
- Values. Happy lawyers have values that guide their choices.
- Energy. Happy lawyers have energy that propels them to do the best work they can.
Are you ready to open your VALVE of Happiness?
