career

sometimes I wish I had chosen a different path

that I'd done theater

or that I was a dancer

a cook

an architect

an accountant

an event planner

sometimes I wish I could dress up for work

work shorter shifts

got to paint my nails any color I wanted

stay home and homemake my little heart out

then I start feeling sorry for myself

comparing myself to others

but then I realize

I get to save lives

there's no other career in this world I'd rather do

I'm a nurse

I'm proud

I save lives

I make a difference
