"A Wish for the Week Ahead" by Nanea Hoffman 

May you find something to smile at, 
something to be grateful for, 
and something to care about. 
May you remember that hard times 
are not hard forevers, no matter how 
it feels while you're in one. May you 
trust yourself, even if others may doubt 
you, and may you honor each baby step 
you take forward. May your coffee be 
plentiful, your hope persistent, and 
your kindness abundant.

The more #kindness we show ourselves, the better able we are to give loving care to others.

Not everyone is convinced about #PatientEngagement in research - I get that. I wrote a letter to those folks to challenge some of their thoughts and in hopes of getting them to reflect on these a bit more - www.bmj.com/content/388/.... Thanks to @bmj.com for publishing.
