When strangers become friends

During my 3 weeks of attachment my feelings have gone up and down, many times.
Working with strangers and meeting different characters in life.
From the very old and demented to the very worried grandson that keeps watch by his grandmother's bedside every night.
Looking at patients is like looking at books, they each have a story to tell.
By the end of the 3rd week they are no longer strangers, they have became my friends.
Both my patients and fellow student nurses.
My clinical instructor then said to us,
'the world is round we will meet each other again.'

The Risk

The lord has given me another chance.

I have fallen once too many times.

Has the courage and confidence I lost returned?

Will I succeed or will I fail.

I will never know until I try.

Should I take such a risk again?

I guess only time will tell.

Next week

next week is my last week of attachment

next week I'm meeting Jill and Angelyn for coffee

next week I'm flying off

next week is so exciting

next week is so unpredictable

next week, what shall i find?
