HARD PILL TO SWALLOW AS AN ADULT:
At some point, you will have to disappoint others to live a life that’s honest to you. People pleasing will drain you, not save you. You have every right to set boundaries and choose your peace. You can disappoint people and still be a good person.
“What I've come to understand is this...
The ‘no’ was never really about the other person.
It was about whether you trusted you'd still be loved on the other side of disappointing someone.”
So ridiculously happy that @BryanVoltaggio won TOC7. No arrogance, no mouth, no extravagance. Just an insatiable drive to deliver perfection in the most unassuming way. Being known for excellence at your craft is one thing; proving it in quiet humility is another. Bryan won in all aspects.

This song is lyrical gold. Pure writing genius, @tenilletownes and Park Chisholm.
Valentine’s Day always reminds of this exchange:
Beast: “I want to do something for her…but what?
Cogsworth: “Well, there’s the usual things…flowers, chocolates, promises you don’t intend to keep.”

Radiologist, on the CT report: “There appears to be some sort of artifact created by structures or material external to patient’s head.”
Me, knowing the patient: “She had her wig on.”
Meeting a random older guy…last name Sain. Introduce myself as a Spry from Woodbury. Guy immediately hugs me and says, “The Sprys are top-notch people…”
“A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches...” Proverbs 22:1
Favorite line read in a hospital note today:
“Without adequate treatment, oxygen will continue to drop, CO2 will continue to rise, and she will die.”
Shout out to the providers who keep it real.

First day working with a new NP colleague. He doesn’t know I work 50-60 hours a week to keep everything together. But he tells me to please let him cover for me any time I need to take a mental health day (or two). And that might be the most ‘seen’ I’ve felt in months.
Kenny and Dierks were great, but the guy I was most excited to see show up for @CollegeGameDay at Vandy on Saturday was @charlieworsham.. Most underrated artist in Nashville.
