Six months ago, I thought blogging was the exclusive domain of the cyber elitists and by default, nothing that I had any interest in.
I’ve been a dentist for nearly 30 years and my profession has given me the opportunity to visit with different people every day. Because of this opportunity, I have developed meaningful relationships with a wide diversity of unique and fascinating people.
My “office window” offers a view of life in the Big Apple from many different perspectives. It’s as though my fingers were on the pulse of New York. Be it good times or challenging times, I sense prevailing emotions without having to leave my inner sanctum.
And now I choose to write about my experiences and the people who make my life so rich and interesting: my patients. Their observations and reflections have enriched my life.
Today I am a blogger!
I find myself drawn to blogging as a vehicle of self-expression, gratitude, and the chance to engage with an audience of kindred spirits who might find some value in my musings (be it humor, insight, or pause for thought).
I thank you all for the opportunity to listen, learn and share. It is in this spirit that I offer up my thoughts of the dental and incidental.
‘No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main’ (John Donne, Meditations XVII)
