Life goals

Today, I took care of a patient who is unlikely to survive. And we couldn’t find any family or friends to be with him. It is so sad, and it’s not the first time that I’ve encountered that at work. It makes me wonder … what circumstances led to this? Were they hateful humans? Outlived their loved ones? A loner who never made connections? Whatever the reason, I aim to live my life to have at least one person at my bedside when it’s my turn to go to the pearly gates. And prayerfully hope to live my life in a way to get to go to the pearly gates. 

Third shift down, bible in a year podcast on the commute there, holy rosary podcast on the drive home, and a rest day tomorrow.
