Today is Nurse's Day.

I worked today and received some token goodies from work. I came home to find a letter in the mail from our Chief Nursing Officer thanking us all for our hard work and dedication. She ended the letter with this quote and I felt it was particularly appropriate to share with you.

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." Leo F. Buscaglia 1924-1998

To all of the nurses around the world... I applaud what you do and honor you on this, our special day.
You make the world a better place and I urge you all to speak out in honor of nurses everywhere. Stand tall, and be proud of what you do.
I celebrate you all!
