In preparation for the bar exam, I must practice writing very formulaic essays. State your Conclusion, identify the Issues, state the Rule, Apply the rule to the facts, repeat your Conclusion.
Example:
We will all be okay. At issue is whether things will turn out okay given that shit is generally so fucked up. In general, things turn out okay as long as we stay cool and calm and treat each other gently. In the case at hand, we are doing lots of yoga, riding our bikes, keeping things in perspective, surrounding ourselves with chill people, and treating people as we like to be treated. These things keep us calm and result in the gentle treatment of others. We will all be okay.
