This year has been interesting to say the least - by moving away from four years of location stability, and to find myself in a rural regional centre, finally having more hands-on experience in medicine has evoked a lot of complex emotions in myself. The other day in my mental health rotation, a patient with an intellectual disability was said to get agitated at a few life stressors but was unable to fully understand "complex emotions".

One Wish
So another thought crossed my mind on my recent cruise. A local art gallery was showcasing an interesting project - the theme was "one wish" based on the ancient Japanese 'Senbazuru', the tradition of folding 1000 cranes in order to make one wish true. The local artist started with the oncology department of the local hospital and this quickly expanded to involve an entire community.

Brownian Motion
All metaphysical existentialist talks always seem to go searching for the answer of the ultimate meaning of the universe and why things are the way they are. Shuffling through different views on this matter has always been interesting with different views influenced by that person's interests and specialities whether it be scientific, philosophical or artful. For me, I have always enjoyed that link between my primitive knowledge of the universe through high school physics and attempting to understand the seeming chaos that is life.
