Replaceable

While doing house-job after MBBS, I quit a prestigious rotation due to some arguments with a senior registrar on a pity matter. I was called by the professor/chief of the ward (hazri). He said something to me which I always carried in my heart. I advise the same to my rotating med students, house-staff and junior colleagues.

" When you are not there, someone will replace you  - and very quickly. This will stay true in every wake of life from work, sports, friendships, and relationships. Don't hurt yourself. All situations shall pass".

This was before I read Jane Austen. Many times I have to say in my heart: 'It shall pass".
