Finding a gun and putting it down.
There are little victories in life that I rejoice in: moments that remind me I have guts. I've always wanted to have guts. Many situations present themselves with 2 possible actions.
1. Lay down
2. Stand up
Such is life. It shall continue thus.
So, there are 2 options. Everyone wants to stand up. But in conversations with people I know (even people with strong personalities), they rarely do, or they do so through the back door. I usually play the victim (because either it is "easier" or I like being miserable).
But being a layer is cliche and stupid. Not to mention a real drag when it comes to being cold.
So my goal is to stand up, one tiny detail at a time.

Your laugh is too big for your teeth.
I don't know what that means but it makes sense for certain people.

When You Say You Love Me
Sometimes its easy to forget to say "i love you" to people. I had a patient yesterday who hated me. And she yelled at me to get out of her room. I felt bad about the sitch. All my co-workers knew she was a temperamental lady. I yelled down the hall to them, "SHE HATES ME!" They all laughed and said, "Its okay, Caitlan, we LOVE you."
I know it seems silly but hearing someone say I love you makes this warm spot in your heart spread to the rest of your body. It can't help but be contagious. It just feels so good.
Have I ever mentioned how much I love my job. It is the worst job in the world, but how I love it so. I love the people I work with and most of the time I love the people I take care of. Leaving the Illinoise will be bittersweet indeed.

Let Me Make You Feel Good
I'm currently addicted to the song in the HP printer commercial "Brand New Key." I think its an old country song. I was singing in front of one of my patients yesterday and she kept asking me to sing it over and over for her. Later she wanted me to sing it for her husband (weird?)
I tucked her in at the end of my shift and right as I was leaving, that commercial came on and I got really excited and she had this adorable smile on her face. I was singing along with is and she just smiled this peaceful smile. I think I teared up as I walked out.
Its these moments that make my job worth it.
