Motivations

It's that time of year again--med school interviews.  They're a not-so-distant memory for us, of course. But a friend has his own interview coming up, so tonight I spent time with him practicing interview skills.  

It's interesting to watch the effect this process has on a generally confident applicant. People who are usually self-assured can suddenly have self-doubts. Last year, I finally realized that these nerves were a physical manifestation of how much this training--this vocation--meant to my husband.  That vulnerability showed me that he was on the path to achieve his true calling.  And that's why I support him.
