With all the negativity in some of these posts...(venting)

Published

I think my focus will be geared towards research when I graduate

in a few years. I really don't want the hospital experience

when all I read is mostly negative.

Ok I'm done venting! I'll probably end up in there anyways.

My father has a saying "the best steel has to go through fire". The very core of nursing starts from care of the patient at bedside. Each and every one of the nurses on this BB have gone through the fire and are of the best steel. There are a lot of positive posts on this BB also about "Lovable Loonies", "Would You Pray if your Patient Asked?", "Practical Jokes at Work", etc. that really speak to the heart and soul of nursing. Yep, we whine, stomp our feet, and grumble about a bunch of things, but in all, we want the best for our patients - that never changes.

Negativity is reality.

To remain always positive one must live within the unreality of social idealism.

The truth is,negative expression is like a "sonar of the soul" looking for the signal to bounce back to them so they feel less alone.
