A dialogue on the choice of a profession-law or medicine

Updated: Dec 3

A Dialogue Between Two Friends About Their Career Aspirations

Rahim: Thank goodness! Our exams are finally over.

Karim: What a relief! I hope I pass. My father just sent me a letter promising to send me to Medical College if I clear the F.Sc.

Rahim: Oh, are you aiming to become a doctor?

Karim: Yes, and I'm thrilled about it. My father is a doctor, you see, and I've always wanted to follow in his footsteps. It seems like such an intriguing profession. What about you?

Rahim: I aspire to become a lawyer. Once I get my B.A., I'll head to Law College to pursue my LL.B.

Karim: Law! It never appealed to me. Why do you want to be a lawyer?

Rahim: Well, it's a highly respectable profession. One can maintain a good standing and hold a decent position, you know.

Karim: So can a doctor. The medical field is just as honorable as law.

Rahim: Oh, absolutely. But I believe a lawyer can potentially earn more money than a doctor.

Karim: I'm not so certain about that. While a few top lawyers may amass fortunes, what about the multitude of lawyers who struggle to make ends meet? The legal field is incredibly crowded.

Rahim: Well, there's always room at the top, you know.

Karim: What I admire about the medical profession, apart from its scientific allure, is its humanitarian aspect. A doctor is always serving humanity, alleviating suffering, curing diseases, and restoring health, thereby bringing happiness to people. It's like a form of social service.

Rahim: Well, a lawyer also contributes positively. They help uncover and prevent crime, defend the innocent from false accusations, and aid those in need.

Karim: True, but a lawyer's life is rife with temptations. They're tempted to defend criminals for hefty fees and secure their release from rightful punishment. I don't see how a lawyer can avoid being deceitful.

Rahim: Now you're jesting. Just as it's possible for a doctor to be an ethical practitioner, it's equally feasible for a lawyer to maintain honesty and integrity.


A Dialogue Between Two Friends About Career Goals

Rahim: Finally, exams are done!

Karim: I’m so relieved. Now I can focus on what’s next. My father promised to send me to Medical College if I pass.

Rahim: That’s exciting! You’ve always wanted to be a doctor, right?

Karim: Yes, it’s been my dream. I find the medical field fascinating, and helping people live healthier lives is so fulfilling. What’s your plan?

Rahim: I’m aiming to become a lawyer. Once I finish my B.A., I’ll start my law studies.

Karim: Interesting choice. Why law?

Rahim: It’s a field where you can gain respect and have a significant impact. Plus, I’ve always enjoyed debates and problem-solving.

Karim: That’s true. But don’t you think law can be a bit stressful? Doctors deal with life-and-death situations, but lawyers often handle intense disputes.

Rahim: Every job has its challenges. I think both professions offer unique rewards. Lawyers fight for justice, and that’s equally important.

Karim: Agreed. Both careers demand dedication and integrity. It’s all about using your skills to make a difference.

Rahim: Exactly. Whatever we choose, it’s about giving our best.


Translation:

Rahim: Thank goodness! Our exams are finally over.রাহিম: আলহামদুলিল্লাহ! আমাদের পরীক্ষা শেষ হলো।

Karim: What a relief! I hope I pass. My father just sent me a letter promising to send me to Medical College if I clear the F. Sc.করিম: কী স্বস্তি! আমি আশাবাদী যে আমি পাস করব। আমার বাবা আমাকে চিঠি দিয়ে জানিয়েছেন যে, আমি যদি এফ.এস.সি. পাস করি তবে তিনি আমাকে মেডিকেল কলেজে পাঠাবেন।

Rahim: Oh, are you aiming to become a doctor?রাহিম: ওহ, তুমি কি ডাক্তার হতে চাও?

Karim: Yes, and I'm thrilled about it. My father is a doctor, you see, and I've always wanted to follow in his footsteps. It seems like such an intriguing profession. What about you?করিম: হ্যাঁ, এবং আমি এ নিয়ে খুবই উচ্ছ্বসিত। আমার বাবা একজন ডাক্তার, এবং আমি সবসময় তার পদাঙ্ক অনুসরণ করতে চেয়েছি। এটি খুবই আকর্ষণীয় একটি পেশা। তুমি কী করতে চাও?

Rahim: I aspire to become a lawyer. Once I get my B.A., I'll head to Law College to pursue my LL.B.রাহিম: আমি একজন আইনজীবী হতে চাই। আমি যখন বি.এ. শেষ করব, তখন এলএলবি করার জন্য ল কলেজে যাব।

Karim: Law! It never appealed to me. Why do you want to be a lawyer?করিম: আইন! এটা আমাকে কখনো টানেনি। তুমি কেন আইনজীবী হতে চাও?

Rahim: Well, it's a highly respectable profession. One can maintain a good standing and hold a decent position, you know.রাহিম: আসলে, এটি একটি অত্যন্ত সম্মানজনক পেশা। এতে একজন ব্যক্তি ভালো মর্যাদা ও সম্মানজনক অবস্থান ধরে রাখতে পারে।

Karim: So can a doctor. The medical field is just as honorable as law.করিম: ডাক্তারও পারে। চিকিৎসা ক্ষেত্রও আইনের মতোই সম্মানজনক।

Rahim: Oh, absolutely. But I believe a lawyer can potentially earn more money than a doctor.রাহিম: অবশ্যই। তবে আমি মনে করি, একজন আইনজীবী একজন ডাক্তারের চেয়ে বেশি অর্থ উপার্জন করতে পারে।

Karim: I'm not so certain about that. While a few top lawyers may amass fortunes, what about the multitude of lawyers who struggle to make ends meet? The legal field is incredibly crowded.করিম: আমি তেমন নিশ্চিত নই। শীর্ষ কয়েকজন আইনজীবী হয়তো প্রচুর সম্পদ অর্জন করেন, কিন্তু যারা দৈনন্দিন জীবনে টিকে থাকতে লড়াই করেন, তাদের কী হবে? আইন পেশা অনেক ভিড়পূর্ণ।

Rahim: Well, there's always room at the top, you know.রাহিম: জানো তো, শীর্ষে সবসময় জায়গা থাকে।

Karim: What I admire about the medical profession, apart from its scientific allure, is its humanitarian aspect. A doctor is always serving humanity, alleviating suffering, curing diseases, and restoring health, thereby bringing happiness to people. It's like a form of social service.করিম: চিকিৎসা পেশায় বৈজ্ঞানিক দিক ছাড়াও আমি মানবিক দিকটি সবচেয়ে বেশি পছন্দ করি। একজন ডাক্তার সর্বদা মানবতার সেবা করে, দুঃখ কমায়, রোগ নিরাময় করে এবং স্বাস্থ্য পুনরুদ্ধার করে মানুষকে সুখ এনে দেয়। এটি একপ্রকার সামাজিক সেবা।

Rahim: Well, a lawyer also contributes positively. They help uncover and prevent crime, defend the innocent from false accusations, and aid those in need.রাহিম: আচ্ছা, একজন আইনজীবীও ইতিবাচক অবদান রাখে। তারা অপরাধ উদ্ঘাটন ও প্রতিরোধ করে, নিরপরাধদের মিথ্যা অভিযোগ থেকে রক্ষা করে এবং প্রয়োজনে সাহায্য করে।

Karim: True, but a lawyer's life is rife with temptations. They're tempted to defend criminals for hefty fees and secure their release from rightful punishment. I don't see how a lawyer can avoid being deceitful.করিম: ঠিক, কিন্তু আইনজীবীর জীবন প্রলোভনে ভরা। বড় ফি নিয়ে অপরাধীদের পক্ষ সমর্থন করার এবং ন্যায়সঙ্গত শাস্তি থেকে মুক্ত করার প্রলোভন আসে। আমি দেখি না কিভাবে একজন আইনজীবী প্রতারণা এড়াতে পারে।

Rahim: Now you're jesting. Just as it's possible for a doctor to be an ethical practitioner, it's equally feasible for a lawyer to maintain honesty and integrity.রাহিম: এখন তুমি মজা করছো। যেমন একজন ডাক্তার নৈতিক থাকতে পারে, ঠিক তেমনি একজন আইনজীবীও সততা এবং নৈতিকতা বজায় রাখতে পারে।
