Sometimes I sit and contemplate…. the desire to be good…and do good.. is it innate or learned?  I think it has to do with environment…parenting…and others’ influences.  Society has imposed so many rules..regulations…what is appropriate and inappropriate?  what is considered right or wrong? For example, when we speed on the highway, we’re always on the lookout for state troopers…Why?  b/c we know there are speed limits, and we  know we have to follow them!  but we still do what we please….speed!!!!

There seemed to be rules for just about everything…we set rules for our kids…teachers set rules in the classroom…jobs set code of ethics….parents set expectations….you can sue anyone who causes u harm or for disagreeing…or trying to cheat someone out of their own cash!!!

Rules…Rules …. Rules… we are a society of rules/regulations and laws…..

Without rules who would we be? A society of vagabonds!!! perhaps? a lot of those reality TV shows have something in common; such as..how far would we go to have our way? how far are we willing to go for self satisfaction?

Society needs rules and regulations!!! or do we?   Without them, would we be  living  in chaos? one against the world?  By monitoring one another via the legal system, are we truly protecting ourselves from being cheated? violated? hurt? disappointed? Or,  have we been programmed to believe that without laws/regulations, we would be a society of brutes and immorals?

Any comments??

I started this blog, first and foremost b/c my boo encouraged me.  He is my sweetie, my world.  Anyway, the idea of this blog is to write down my thoughts/opinions and to generate various discussion topics.  I’m not big on blogging, b/c most times I keep my thoughts to myself.  Nevertheless, I think writing is quite therapeutic!

All about me: I grew up in a third world country where the idea of a health care system  was almost non-existent!! I saw poverty, hunger, sickness and death.  Even with all the sadness around me, I was hopeful!!!  The hope that someday I will make something of myself, the hope that someday I can reach out and help those who cannot help themselves.  I wanted my life to have meaning! Hence why I chose  a career in medicine.  I am quite happy and bless that God has guided me and provided me with the strength, humility and love to pursue my life dreams, and to be able to accomplish goals that I have set for my self.  And still…there is so much more that I want to do…..

My family is my world!!! I love them so much, they have always been at my side cheering me on.  God has blessed me so much, and I thank him every day for my family.

I have the most wonderful friends!!!

I love my job and My career!!! I wouldn’t want to do anything else!!!

I learn something new every day about myself….and I want to keep learning and finding better ways to survive in our world!   As long as I keep GOD right by my side…I know things will be alright!!
