In Chekhovâs short story â The Bet â, a banker and a lawyer make a bet with each other about whether death is better than life in prison. As morbid as this sounds, this story explores more than the usual debate of capital punishment versus life imprisonment. To fulfill the betâs conditions and win two million rubles from the banker, the young lawyer must live in total isolation for 15 years. The only contact he is allowed with the rest of the world is through letters.The story doesnât progress as we might expect. But this is Chekhov, so we must put our expectations aside and let him take us on a journey with the evolution of these two characters. Whichever side of the fence we might be with this never-ending debate, it makes us question our beliefs and values while reading.
Five short storiesâby Anton Chekhov, Katherine Mansfield, Bharati Mukherjee, Anthony Doerr, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie âexplore various isolation, solitude, and loneliness pathologies from the perspectives of different lives and cultures.

respective histories of these two modes of being also show us that solitude is more about an autonomously-chosen, self-reflective time with oneself, while loneliness is about an undesired and imposed lack of connection with the world around us. Solitude is often a privilege while loneliness is seen as a curse.
As always, fiction allows us to look at aspects of human nature that we are often unwilling to face within ourselves or in our loved ones. What the characters in these stories experience and how they respond to their isolationary solitude or loneliness allows us certain deeper insights that are, at once, both familiar and eye-opening.
Image by monica1607 ( Pixabay License / Pixabay) Several of Katherine Mansfieldâs short stories feature solitary, lonely women. The title character of â Miss Brill â is so beautifully and heartbreakingly portrayed that she has become a timeless literary archetype. Almost the entire story takes place on a park bench.
By the terms of the agreement, the only relations he could have with the outer world were by a little window made purposely for that object.
Like the doctor that he was in real life, he probes, diagnoses, and presents every important detail. The prognosis is ours to make as readers. And though the story is written to appeal to the intellect more so than to emotions, Chekhovâs master y of showing versus telling is always a delight to savor.
Ballantine Books, 1999. When her kids reached school age, Sabrina Jones went back to work as a nurse's aide at a health care facility run by Just Like Home Inc. She soon became concerned by what she saw. She had worked at other nursing homes where cleanliness was a priority.
The story of Sabrina Jones and Laura Bernardi is true, though the names have been changed.
Knowing Sabrina is not likely to show up at the deposition, Laura has a certified shorthand reporter ready and waiting.
And she knows that she and Just Like Home have the upper hand. Sabrina's lawyer has taken a job in another state, leaving her without counsel. Still unemployed, Sabrina has little money to prosecute the lawsuit herself, and almost no knowledge about how to do it.
A misconception exists that perfection leads to a good reputation. The truth is that a good reputation is built on resilience, honesty, reliability and hard work. Projecting an invulnerable veneer (portraying to clients and colleagues that you have it all worked out and you possess no weaknesses) may seem like a useful strategy to win clients and impress others, but it is a very harmful tactic when it comes to your mental and emotional well-being. Whenever we pretend to be something that we know ourselves not to be, we automatically separate ourselves from others. The only way to establish real human connection is to know and be known by someone else, including our vulnerabilities, failures, strengths and dreams.
At the heart of loneliness is a lack of connection. Real human connection allows us to relate to others, feel supported and validated by others, and share our struggles and victories with those who matter most to us. Without this authentic connection, we feel distance from others, a lack of trust and a growing sense that we are alone (that we are not understood, that we must carry our burdens by ourselves).
An important distinction needs to be made to understand and combat loneliness. The experience of loneliness is a feeling of isolation. Solitude, on the other hand, is the state of being alone, but not feeling lonely. Therefore, people can experience the phenomenon of âfeeling alone in a crowd.â You might be surrounded by others but still feel as though no one understands what you are going through. Likewise, you might be working alone much of the time but not feel a sense of loneliness.
A common issue among lawyers serving at-risk and traumatized populations is the tendency to hold onto the emotional material they hear. Clientsâ stories start to weigh them down. This âvicarious traumaâ can lead some, often motivated by a concern about burdening others, to keep their struggles to themselves, thereby creating even more distance between them and their sources of support. Unlike mental health professionals, lawyers in general are not trained on how to practice self-care, even though clients often treat lawyers like therapists.
But in 2017, the New York attorney proved himself to be a bigger thug when he was arrested for kidnapping, fraud, and extortion.

This is a list of some of the wildest stories of 2017. Attorneys are human, and sometimes humans do crazy things. Even illegal things. From faking oneâs death to being ordered to live in a padded room, the year 2017 has seen its fair share of attorneys acting badly.
Search Jobs. 1. Well-known attorney David Boies found himself caught in an ethics scandal when it was revealed he represented Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein the same time his firm represented The New York Times, which was working on a takedown of the Weinstein Company founder.
7. In July, attorney Jay Adriaan Venter was listed as dead, and his fiancĂŠe confirmed that he was cremated. She even submitted a life insurance claim on his behalf in August.

No signs of life out on the quiet streets. He stood just inside the entrance to his building for 10 minutes or so, scanning up and down the roads, just to make sure, before heading out. The streets were empty, as they had been for months: not a sound to be heard, or a movement to be seen.
