Nurses and Librarians

What profession do you admire most and why?

Don’t tell my ex wife… she’s a registered nurse after all, but I really appreciate that profession and the folks who choose it as a career. Often women and just as often disrespected, they are full of knowledge and compassion. Facing disease and tragedy on a daily, they keep their humor and courage on full view and take their despair with them when they clock out.

And I think librarians are terrific too. Horribly underpaid, often the most educated person in the room, they spend their days providing services well beyond locating a book for your bewildered child.

One thought on “Nurses and Librarians

  1. My daughter is a nurse, I agree with you. Nurses are true heroes.

    I just retired. I was an assistant in a library. Best & Favorite job! Helping students discover what they would like to read & the love of reading…priceless!
