Today was more about the impressions that I was left with rather than the events that comprised my day.

From the lunch conversations with Kristin and Venny, to my observations of the daily grind in Chinatown... From the negotiation meeting with hospital administration, to dinner discussion with old med school friend Justin... From reviewing the content of email messages, to having random conversations in passing... I'm left with the reminder that I value people and organizations that not only desire to make a contribution, a difference in the world, but truly know how to go about it in a caring and compassionate way.

Logically, the converse is also true.
