good day

"There's this person in my head. She is brilliant, capable. She can do chest tubes and craniotomies. She can run a code without freaking out. She's a really good surgeon. Maybe even a great surgeon. She's me... only so much better.

It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. I was a good doctor. Even when it was hard. I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought, 'I can't do this. I can't do this alone.' But I closed my eyes and imagined myself doing it. And I did. I blocked out the fear and I did it."

--Meredith Gray, from Grey's Anatomy

Hi Nichole,
Thanks for your comment on my blog! It's nice to have some feedback so I thought I'd come say hi.

I currently go to a non-denominational church which suits me well. My boy has found one "by accident" (not really I'm sure) that sounds really similar and I've even watched services online and it looks ok.

What would you say the hardest thing about moving for love was? I see you're a doctor so at least work wouldn't have been an issue for you? I work as a sort of careers advisor for skilled migrants to NZ so I know I'll probably take a step back for a while in my career if I come out.

Anyway, not sure if I've even replied in the best spot (still figuring out blogging) but nice to hear from you!

=) That's a great quote.

I "borrow" more quotes from Meredith than I care to admit to! Whomever writes for her - is absolutely amazing.

I hope that it was truly a great day for you.
