Dream
It’s been our dream to become a travel nurse since forever.
So I wonder…
Did we make it? Are we getting there? I wonder what school we ended up going to, what specialty did you pick?
I know we’ve been interested in pediatrics, or even working in the ICU.
But maybe you have led us in a different direction.
I wonder about you.
I wonder what mindset you’re currently in.
I wonder if you enjoy the dream…
The dream of working in a hospital, helping, and taking care of all the patients.
We’ve wanted this for so long.
And so I just want to know if we followed through with all our plans?
Did we go to all the internships we planned on going to?
I stay up at night planning every step of the way…
And so… I dream.

Beautiful! Keeping dreaming, Laila! You can be whoever you want to be!
Unbelievable, Laila, keep dreaming it will come true… I am sooo proud of you
Love it and love you… You are so dynamic! This poem reminds me of a saying that says self-esteem is the reputation you have with yourself. I’ve learned that when you put God first, you’ll always be proud of yourself. Never stop dreaming.
