When we do the best we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life or the life of another.

Helen Keller

Have a joyful day!

This message seems particularly appropriate as we are in a a time when our profession is tasked with responding to one of the most overwhelming crisis of our times. So proud of all nurses collectively for rising to this immense challenge .

The joy in life is won in its deepest and truest sense only by those who have not shirked life’s burdens.

Theodore Roosevelt

Sending positive intentions for a joyful day!

It has been a strange “Nurses’ Day”, but then again, it is a strange time. I reflect on the 7am and 7pm clap outs in NYC and other cities to say thank you to the essential personnel changing shifts and I think – that is healing for everyone. It reminds me of this quote from Steve Maraboli:

“Just an observation: it is impossible to be both grateful and depressed. Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up”.

I think all the expressions of gratitude for our work right now is healing for the public and us. Soak it in…it is better than a cookie – even though they were delicious!
