There seems to be a sense of self in medical school that becomes separate from the person we want to become...will become. Sometimes it takes just a photo to remind me of what it is that I'm connected with, and the services that I've performed in the past to touch the lives of patients and their families. I've been very, very lucky over the years to have such experiences as a PA. I hope for many, many more. It is our destiny. I need to stay "amazed." It helps with the distractions that compete for our attention.
Let us not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness.
