I am the way and the truth and the life, says the Lord;
no one comes to the Father except through me

As I complete 35 years of my existence on this planet in the week to come… I notice I have grown alot. my existence is beyond just my work and education… I want to learn and provide my patients with best care ..

I am learning to listen and pay attention to my patients a lot more than usual cause if the language barrier, alot of the discussion is me picking clues and cues from their gestures , interpretation of the statement …

As Jesus claims to be the only way to reach the Lord I am gradually realising how much I need to focus on listening and paying attention to what is happening around me… enabling me to understand the situation and respond appropriately.
