Unpleasant Awareness

I think the one thing I have really had my eyes opened up to in the healing profession is the frailty and vulnerability of the human condition both physically and mentally.

It's been really hard to come to terms with having stepped out from behind a shield. I never entertained the idea of doing western medicine cos I wanted to avoid having to deal with that whole life and death thing day in day out...but the whole idea is still managing to penetrate my psyche far more than I ever expected it too...I guess this is also part and parcel of growing older.

I preferred the Bubble.
