ouch...harsh words Karen.
First I wonder why you doubt your own words and seek affirmation of what your instinct is telling you.
Interesting how people see through different perspectives.
I see a kind hearted nurse offereing her time in a crisis situation. Her actions appear to come from a place of good intent I suspect. She saw reality...real life...real people, warts and all..and it hurt her.
Lets be honest...there is a lot of dishonesty in the world..and this nurse was pointing it out....
I'm not a catholic but didn't Jesus do the same in the Temple (the cleansing of the Temple)
I am sure that even through her hurting she still managed to do a lot of good work in the shelter. Honour her for that.
She was letting off steam, voicing her hurts and dissapointments in humanity. This does not make her a bad person or a battered and insensitive person. This makes her an honest person.
We can all attempt to live in a world of "love and light" and do our best. But perhaps this means being able to hold a compassionate space even for those who rage and shout internally.
I think this nurse needed some one to say "well done for giving your time voluntarily.. and yes we undersand that you saw things that caused you hurt and despair. We understand also that you did hte best that you could"
Compassion is all embracing.

thank you Karen for accepting our words with such dignity.
I agree..... passing such hatefulness around does not help anyone.
Your words also radiated deep compassion, understanding and passion. There was no judgment in my reply..neither did i hear it in Michael's.
I understand the importance of being able to say what is inside without being judged or condemned for it. As I know that these are only words in a moment of time. They are not the real US.
The REAL us knows and understands all.
warmest of heart wishes to you
