@pkahill@joelanthony23 Gen 6:18 God tells Noah, "I will establish my covenant with you, and you shall come into the ark, you, your sons, your wife, and your sons’ wives with you." Seems quite clear that those are the only people God wanted to save. Where else would the Holy Spirit lead?
Detach morality, religion and your cultural beliefs from your medical practice.
Those are YOUR personal responsibility, not your patients' burden to share.
"Thank you,Mr Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. One of my favourite books is Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office. This is in response to what you told me earlier in the morning when you urged me to be a good example to the girls,the younger ones who are doing their first term. Mr Speaker, if they are good girls, they will never get the corner office. Be as bad as Millie Odhiambo and you will be the mother of this House. I am a bad girl and as a bad girl I am here serving my fourth term.
So do not be cheated like in the African culture where you are told to have decorum, dress nicely, be kind and nice. You will go nowhere. Be a bad girl like me and you will get somewhere."
Writing is an act of rebellion.
Writing is an act of creation.
Writing is an act of salvation.
Writing is an act of exploration.
Writing is an act of emotion.
Writing is an act of confession.
Writing is an act of speculation.
Writing is an act of reflection.
Keep writing.
90% of it is luck and I wish more people would be honest about it. You didn’t do anything special to meet your person. You don’t “earn” another human. Happy for you, but you got lucky and felt they were worth putting in the skill and work in maintaining the relationship.

I recently learned about the real-life Bohemian people and how using "boho" to refer to a certain style of fashion is fairly problematic (somewhat akin to the G-slur) so, I'm changing replacing "boho" style with "earthy," in my personal lexicon. I recommend y'all do the same!
men routinely celebrate their lack of community building and support for one another and then cry about their lack of mental health resources and say male loneliness is an epidemic lmaooo
