People need to be encouraged

People need to be encouraged, so do I.

I am surprised how much joy I had when my instructor told me that I will be an exceptional nurse and all the instructors were impressed what I have done as a student. My heart was signing, my mind was dancing. I had to tell myself that was just a comparison with other students who didn’t know anything about medicine before so that I would not be so happy and forgot who am I.

Indeed, as a former medical doctor who was doing well in nursing school had nothing to be proud of: I already learned lots of things long time ago; and already practiced medicine before. Learning to become a nurse is not completely new for me. I should do well here. There is no excuse for me to not being a good student. So all the instructors should not give me the best commands. But I appreciate it though.

Even though, I am well educated in healthcare system, I am very well aware that I should not consider myself as a very beginner in nursing school, but I am still happy with what I got from instructors, nurses, coworkers and classmates. I am still happy with the nice commands I got from them. I still appreciate all the encouragement they gave to me. I think that is what I should give back to them in return: everyone needs encouragements.

I remembered that I wrote a little article about organization. I did that when I was up set with an instructor’s way manage the team’s time and affected all the team’s performance.
I didn’t let anyone read it except my husband. I did put it on my Chinese blog even it was an English article. That is the point: I had to express my anger without hurt any one. I knew there would be no one in school and work that would be interested in Chinese blog since they don’t know Chinese at all. But now, when I am experience my feelings of being encouraged, I still feel not good for doing so. I should change my word to encouragment from complaining.

It is true that no one is perfect, but only we ca learn is to be better. Treat people like what you like to be treated. Do what you want other people to do. Try your best to help others. That is what I will try to do. I put it here just as a reminder for myself.

Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong! Weng Ma Ni Ba Mi Hong!

Buddha blesses everyone. Buddha helps me to become a better person!

Thanks.
