Good Times

Tuesday, November 10th: Today I was at Hospice Home. It was the Hospice Home building location, not the home visits. I had a good experience with the nurse I shadowed and learned a lot. I learned quickly that being a Hospice nurse at the Hospice Home is very different than other types of nursing.

They make a lot more independent decisions and then just notify the physician as to what they…

First of all, Antigone’s goal is to get justice for her brother and be able to bury and mourn his death. Antigone’s brothers killed each other in battle.…

I had to live alone and this was a good opportunity to talk with my mom about the family problem, but my mother left without telling me where she went, so I could not find her directly and I also did not want to ask anyone. I thought an intelligent way to know where she lived was that I…

practices, however, forced me to slow down, even if just for twenty minutes and focus on the here and now, which helped me to appreciate to a greater extent what was going on in my life at the current point in time. This being said, my mindfulness formal practices have not always been easy. Often times it was tough to stay focused, and because of this I would tend to judge myself for not focusing as well as I knew I was capable of. This non-judging attitude however, is a key part of mindfulness.…

When having a severe case of social anxiety, this can cause someone to have a fear of speaking…

learned how to ski. I had been being harped on forever to try it. Skiing can be breathe taking, nerve racking, and fun all at the same time. For several years I have wanted to try it but deep down I was always way to nervous. Finally, I told myself you have to try it to know if you're going to like it. The day has finally come!
