allnurses bleed

Gives me examples of other behaviors I wouldn’t otherwise encounter. As my sweet old chain-smoking, hard-drinking grandmother always used to say, “Some of us are put on this earth to be examples to others. One way or another.” Gawd, I miss that grand old broad and think of her almost every day.

In accordance to what your sweet old chain-smoking, hard-drinking grandmother said: 

As Richard Bach wrote, "Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you".

I choose to use every person, all the events of my life as inspiration for my art:

The allnurses members do that for me- give me perspectives that I wouldn't otherwise have and subsequently inspire my art.

One of the reasons that allnurses continues to be my favorite website is because of the members and their respective perspectives...

A definition of the word bleed is "to emit or lose blood", but in the instance of this thread, the meaning refers to "spreading into or through something gradually".

It is interesting to note that the 1969 Rolling Stones song, Let It Bleed, refers to "intravenous drug user slang for successfully finding a vein" but more so, "the song is mainly about emotional dependency".

In a relationship which goes beyond an intrinsic one, intended to fulfill a means to an end, emotions can become involved.

A vast majority of nursing students utilize the allnurses website in order to gain information to assist them in their endeavor to learn. Many nurses use allnurses in order to gain understanding of the dynamics of nursing in order to become better nurses.

There are those who seek to gain a concurrent perspective in order to learn and understand. This search encompasses both the technical and behavioral aspects of nursing. Once behavior comes into play, emotions follow, and emotional attachments can be an intricate part of the relationship with allnurses.

Some of us feel an emotional attachment (dependency?) to this website. We feel a kind of closeness to our virtual friends, or a certain repugnance to some members' posts.

Experienced emotions often continue after the event has passed and we sometimes share our emotional feelings with those to whom we feel close.

Therefore, we allow allnurses to bleed into other parts of our lives.

I'm sure it would be challenging but I'm a little perceptive so maybe I could do it.

Wrongway would annually request employees to fill out a confidential satisfaction surveys.

I am sure they never knew who I was, bing a 55+ year old male nurse that worked weekend option psych.

I would like to think that there are a few people that I would like to be friends with IRL, but really, I'm not a great friend in person. 

This rendition of Davey Do was done by one of my great friends on the cartoon website whose username is Me Its Me, a 20 year old young man from Argentina!

Really, I am who I am who I am pretty much across the board. However you feel about me from my submissions, I am just that in real life.

However, like mayonnaise, if you leave me out too long, I go bad.

 I feel I'm pretty much the same on here as in real life: nice but crazy and anxious LOL

A lot of my artist friends, including me, are just that way, LibraNurse. Not so much anxious, but full of fenetic energy, which is more of a public persona.

We enjoy bouts of socializing, but prefer much more to be alone and into our art.
