"Remember upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all." ~ Alexander the Great


The next time a family member gets defensive the minute you walk in the door, or a nurse barely conceals the fact she doesn't trust your report, or the EMT or Medic you're meeting on scene disregards you, change your thinking.

Instead of "what a jerk," think "I wonder what jerk taught them that I don't know what I'm doing.  Oh yeah, probably the one that came before me - dressed just like me."

Then redefine their perception with your actions, for you are simply a reflection and what you do speaks of us all.
