Heart Versus Head

Posted by Sean on September 14, 2010

Blind judgment or divine intervention?

I’m thinking of…

I follow my heart AND my head. Using (or thinking) with one and not the other will lead to regrets, empty closure, and further need. Your head keeps you in the game of 'life'. You need to follow the rules, but know when to bend or break them, and knowing the consequences of veering off that path.

Your heart is where your happiness lies. You can let your head direct you anywhere you like, if your heart is not into it, if your heart is not a part of the decision – then the effects of the decision will be detrimental to your well-being.

A checks and balances sort of system maybe. One helps the other, and in the end it keeps you and your life in balance.

Nursing As a 'Cube Buster'?

Posted by Sean on September 12, 2010

Yeah.. rather weird analogy, but it seems that nursing is one of the careers that Yahoo! claims will get you out from behind that ‘cubicle’ and away from the “bright fluorescent lighting”.
Hmm..
I’m quite interested in the last 2 factoids.
The Department of Labor’s prediction of jobs, and the average salary??

What do you think my fellow nurses?

Cube-Busting Careers

Cube Buster #3 – Registered Nurse

Moving around all day is a great way to cure a case of the cubicle blues. Registered nurses do that – and so much more – by helping others in this incredibly rewarding and noble profession. To top it off, the job outlook is excellent, according to the Department of Labor, with nearly 600,000 new registered nursing positions expected between 2008 and 2018.

Get started: Enrolling in a nursing training program is the first step to a career as a registered nurse, and that can involve earning your nursing diploma, associate’s degree, or bachelor’s degree.

Salary: Registered nurses earn $62,450.

This is by far STILL my favorite picture. ?

Happy Anniversary angel. I can’t believe it’s been 5 years??

I couldn’t stop smiling when I was looking through all our pictures.

I’m still madly in love with you.

You still warm my heart with just your presence.

I still smile every time I think about you.

I still smile every time I see you, or see your picture.

Your smile is still as radiant as ever.

I become a better man every day that you are in it.

I love being proud of just being your husband.

You have been, and will always be my everything.

Thank you for being you.

McDonalds and Their Food

Posted by Sean on September 6, 2010

If you know anything about Henry Rollins, he is *cough* *cough* – rough around the edges, but a no BS kind of guy.
He is also a horse of a beast when it comes to exercise and pumping iron. I found it mildly enlightening how he describes McDonald’s food.
Ahh…
