That’s a real shame Raj. It took a while here in Australia so hopefully the conversations won’t end . Voluntary assisted dying should and can coexist with good Palliative Care

Especially if it’s in the middle of the night , it’s polite to ask “ is this a good time to chat about a patient?”

I spent a long hard day in an ER. It was amazing. (And it turned out fine).

Kind words here but working in an ED is hard. It often felt like we were the drain towards which the s**t was hosed. You saw almost daily the worst of everything. People in absolute distress on the worst day of their life. Burnout is real. Having to fight for resources makes it feel even harder.

Be the same man before and after the hat is lifted.
PHOTO by Luca Nardone. A person stands in a sleek, modern corridor, dressed in a textured grey overcoat and black turtleneck. Their face is hidden as they tip a wide-brimmed black hat forward, covering their features with one hand. The light is soft, the atmosphere quiet, as reflections dance on the water feature beside the walkway. Every line and fold feels deliberate, composed, and quietly bold.

We should meet in another life, we should meet in air, me and you. - Sylvia Plath
Photo by Casey Horner. A hilltop bathed in warm, golden light rises above a sea of clouds. Two silhouetted figures stand near the crest, facing each other, as if caught in quiet conversation. The clouds stretch endlessly, resembling waves frozen in time. The horizon dissolves into soft pastels, blurring the boundary between earth and sky. A moment of stillness, suspended between heights and vastness.

Only in the darkest nights do we find our true colors.
Photo by Daniele Colucci. A narrow cobblestone street winds through a quiet village under a dusky sky. Dimly glowing orange lights spill from windows and streetlamps, their reflections shimmering on the damp ground. The weathered stone buildings, silhouetted against drifting clouds, create an air of timeless solitude, as if the night itself holds its breath in stillness.

Want nothing. Lack nothing.
Photo by Doni Haris. A lone figure stands on a small boat over glasslike water, holding a fishing rod as dawn or dusk blends teal and rose across the sky. A pale moon lingers above, and the vast open space around the boat creates a sense of spacious calm and suspended time.

The BBC commissioned a film about the work of 2 doctors in a war zone over 3 weeks, & then pulled it, because it showed one side in such bad light. Can you guess where it was shot…? The producers have now released a cut for all to see. It’s free. Here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bycL...

Courage doesn’t erase fear. Courage walks beside fear, trembling but unyielding.
Photo by Beyza Kaplan - A solitary figure stands on a dark field under a vast, mist-filled sky. The silhouette is faint, almost blending into the enveloping haze. The scene exudes quiet isolation, as if the person is suspended between the earth and an infinite void. The air feels heavy yet timeless, inviting introspection and a sense of stillness.

The door exists only in your mind, and so does the key.
CC0 Photo - A vivid wooden door painted in shades of yellow and gold is framed by an ornate, scalloped arch. Sunlight filters through leafy trees, casting soft shadows on the weathered surface, highlighting the intricate metalwork of its handles and lock. The warm tones and delicate details evoke a sense of history and mystery, inviting reflection on the stories that lie behind the door.

The more you follow your own life, the fewer friends you’ll keep. Only a small number of those who align with your journey will stay. Having fewer friends doesn’t mean unhappiness—it’s measurable proof that you’re walking your own path.
Photo by Mathias Reding - Two people walk along a quiet forest path enveloped in dense fog. The tall, leafless trees stretch their bare branches into the misty sky, creating a serene and mysterious atmosphere. The soft light diffuses through the fog, evoking a sense of calm and introspection as they journey forward.

Want nothing, lack nothing.
Photo by Emmy Paw - A woman sits peacefully on a hillside surrounded by tall green grass and blooming purple wildflowers. Her back faces the viewer, and she gazes out over a vast valley filled with mist, with snow-capped mountains visible in the distance. The scene feels serene and reflective, capturing a quiet moment in nature.

A clock is simple; time is not.
Photo by Olena Bohovyk - A simple white wall clock hangs on a large, nearly empty light gray wall. The clock face shows the time as 10:38, with its black hands contrasting against the white background. The vast expanse of the wall creates a minimalist, serene atmosphere, emphasizing the smallness of the clock and the quiet passage of time.

Within the most complex structures, the purest form of beauty resides.
Photo by Creative Free Stock - A delicate lavender rose sits at the center of a dark wooden surface with horizontal planks. The soft petals of the flower form an intricate spiral, creating a calm and meditative visual contrast against the deep, textured wood background. The composition exudes simplicity and tranquility, drawing attention to the beauty of natural forms and muted tones.

Less thinking, more being. Less seeking, more wandering.
PHOTO by Nick Dunlap - A lone figure sits by a glowing campfire in the vast openness of a desert plain, embraced by the quiet hush of night. Above, the sky stretches endlessly, scattered with countless stars twinkling in deep indigo and black. The constellation Orion is clearly visible near the center. Faint golden lights linger low on the horizon, hinting at distant human presence, but here, stillness prevails under the cosmic canopy.

We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be. – May Sarton
Photo by Desiray Green - A mysterious figure stands in the middle of a rural road, completely obscured by a large bunch of shiny black balloons. The backdrop features a cloudy sky and a hint of farmland stretching into the distance. Wearing a white skirt and a black top, the person holds the balloons, creating a stark contrast. If these balloons were thoughts, where would they carry you?

The tree stands alone because there are times when solitude is safer than being around others.
Photo by Jeremy Bishop - A lone, leafless tree stands atop a gently sloping hill under a vast, cloudy sky. The silhouette of a solitary person walking nearby emphasizes the stillness and quiet of the scene. The interplay of light and shadow creates a sense of calm and introspection, with the open expanse of sky inviting contemplation.

And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul. - John Muir
Photo by Olena Bohovyk - This image captures an aerial view of a winding road enveloped by a dense forest, showcasing a vast expanse of greenery with specks of autumnal yellow. A solitary red car drives along the road, creating a striking contrast with the natural colors around it. Does the path chosen reflect the journey, or does the journey define the path?
