"I am...Thank you, Shonda You're too kind.<br /><br />"I am learning much more than simply what I need to know for the degree I'm seeking"-<br /><br />It's to your great credit that you see the value of that. None of our degrees adequately measures or reflects the heart of those who self-impose a commitment to reaching beyond the formal requirements, who reach for their own human and humane potential. I hope to see you in the Bioethics class, in the future!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115141650963300011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7930483986516771507.post-4575368356838089752015-02-06T15:12:58.617-06:002015-02-06T15:12:58.617-06:00I have mentioned your words to him and he smiled q...I have mentioned your words to him and he smiled quite brightly.<br /><br />I love the fact that I am learning much more than simply what I need to know for the degree I'm seeking. I am learning what I truly need to know to have a great life as well, I'm learning to think critically but even more importantly, I'm learning to flourish as myself instead of simply as what others might perceive that I should be. That is exactly what I think every inspiring doctor should do, learn who they are and what they think, be confident in that and then learn to have an open mind and accept others in the very same way.<br /><br />You are an inspiration, Dr. Oliver, and I am very grateful to be learning from you and my classmates.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547514798458614138noreply@blogger.com
