If I can stop one heart from breaking
I shall not live in vain
If I can ease one Life the Aching
Or cool one in pain

Or help one fainting Robin
Unto his Nest again,
I shall not live in Vain.

Emily Dickinson

This poem reflects the positive energy which motivates me through everyday of my often challenging work.

We hold the power of healing others. With that power come responsibilities, but also pride and fulfillment.
