why I share my perspectives as a physician....

Why I share my perspectives ...
while outwardly difficult to differentiate by another, I am aware of two reasons:

1.  Being a physician with opportunity to meet people in need reaching out to me; sharing my honest perspective is simply being.
2.  Being owner of the waxing and waning delusion that good deeds or anything for that matter will somehow make me complete; when in fact I was, am and will always be ok.
The vividness of each moment are obscured by thoughts of pride, shame, hope or fear; and brought to a brilliant focus by the power of each breath.
