Anticipation
"Our desires presage the capacities within us; they are harbingers of what we shall be able to accomplish. What we can do and want to do is projected in our imagination, quite outside ourselves, and into the future. We are attracted to what is already ours in secret. Thus passionate anticipation transforms what is indeed possible into dreamt-for reality."

- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Congratulations to everyone who just graduated or will graduate in the next few weeks. You may not realize just how great of an accomplishment this is, but your families and friends are proud to call you "doctor." I wish that each of you keeps in touch with the creative spirit during your residency. Feel free to continue to submit any form of creative expression through your residency years.
