How do you deal with disappointment?
I think one of the most important things that I learned during medical school is learning how to deal with disappointment. Multiple times there have been events that have brought me disappoinment like not getting the grade I wanted. Many of have these experiences. But it is what you do during the time that you are disappointed that makes the difference in your situation.
How will you react today?
Will you get angry and take it out on your loved one or friend? Will say something to someone that should not be shared? Will you speak poorly of someone who offended you? Will you ignore your disappoinment completely and allow it to build?
Or will you choose not to be offended and seek an understanding of the disappointment? Will you make arrangments to fix the error that lead to the disapointment? Will you vow to yourself never to give up if you know that it is God's will for you?
Just a thought. Today as you journey through life's disappointments be sure to take a momemnt to decide on your response to it.
You are free to choose your responce. "For whom the son see free is free indeed" John 8:36.
Choose wisely and let God's love guide you.
Patient Compassion for the Day:
Just before examining a patient, I started washing my hands in warm water. Realizing that I had just sanitized them, the patient asked me, "Why are you washing your hands again?" "Well, I didn't want to touch you with cold hands is all", I replied.
Southern Quote for the Day:

Out With the Old
For God, his healing, and his gift of Life I write. 1/5/2016
After a monsterous amout of time, I have found my way back to this blog. My goal last year was to post some great information about compassion in the healthcare system and to start the #CompassionU movement. Well, I did that- somewhat. What I learned was that there are times that you set out to do something grand, yet you are not quite ready for the task. That is what 2015 taught me the most. There are some tasks that I was almost ready for, but not quite yet. However, 2016 starts a brand new slate for this year of blogging. Compassion University lives and so does the #CompassionU movment.
