Loving Little Ones

It has been a long time since I blogged. Free time seems to be slim to none these days. Currently in my life, I am interning at Children's Hospital and I love every minute of it. When I first started nursing school, I remember thinking this was never going to end. From night shift at Cooper Green, psychiatric rotations at Trinity and finally now at my last rotation. It seems surreal actually. Lately however, I've noticed that the old time saying,"When you find your nitch, it won't feel like work."- really is true. There is nothing better, then getting a hug from your patient after talking with them or playing the Wii and getting your butt kicked by a 6 year old in the cow racing game. How can I not enjoy my job? It truly takes special people for all walks of life, my mother teaches special education- and I think she must be an angel- with that said, I know I am right where I am suppose to be. I keep waiting for God to show me what I am suppose to do after this, not patiently waiting of course, I'm working on that. Maybe the meaning of all of this, is just to be silent and enjoy each moment as it comes and goes. Life is going so quickly these days: graduation applications, NCLEX stuff thrown at us from right and left; grad school or no grad school; apply for jobs now or wait.....ahhh. I thought maybe graduation came with peace. Wrong. I found that peace doesn't mean being in a place of no noise or worries; it simply means being in the midst of those things and still being calm in your heart. That is my new years resolution. Keep calm and carry on.
