Your daughter painted on the dining room wall….
Phone rang. ”Sit down”
OK, I’m sitting.
“Your daughter (MY daughter 
) painted the dining room wall today”
Me: “ok”
Her : ” You’re not upset”
Me: Nope… I have paint brushes and in 5 minutes we’ll have it all fixed up.” ”Bye”
Perceptive matters!

I see some of the most horrible injuries everyday. I see lives ruined, families literally ripped apart and I treat people who may never be able to walk, work, love or learn ever again.
Anyone of *us* who is not able to see life through that filter and appreciate every living moment with the ones they love is missing out on a truly special opportunity.
’nuff said.
