Is it a frame of mind or a value system ….
I had gone over to see this Doctor friend. She had asked me to wait in her office while she went across to see a patient.
The office was bare but on her table was her name plate.
Nearly half a century earlier I used to visit this guy forork or the other. He was a sharp sensible guy, and by and large a fair man and he did go onto great achievements. I always remember his office table and name plate thereon.
I often had need to go to him for some work or the other and he rather liked me. How ever when I or any other went to him and asked him for something or other, he would while listening one out seem to be absentmindedly playing around with his name plate. Then he would seemingly, inadvertently turn it around.
One could then read on it, “What have you done for me lately?”
I was reminded of that and I smiled as I turned around this name plate. Written on it as if to remind herself was –
Cure Sometimes. Treat Often. Comfort Alwaysl
