"Acts of grace that go beyond the Christmas spirit, a sense of humor that is undeniably your own, a way of listening that always make me feel so understood, I am grateful for your kindness and understanding...
You have made my life richer, happier, and better in more ways that you can know. Merry Christmas"
This is a Christmas card I recieved from a patient. Its one card I just can't put away. It is one of the reasons that I love my job. I truly think I have one of the best jobs. I know this because I would do it every day without getting paid. I love everyone of my patients and learn so much from them. I feel one of my gifts is the gift of mercy. Helping people recover from pain and injury allows me to use this gift.
Some moms say their job is a great break from their kids. I have never felt this way. I would rather be with my kids. At work I have more people to nurture and care for every minute of the day. It is certainly not relaxing and I am challenged often. I am still grateful for those who helped me with my education so I can do what I do.
