The person came out of the little cabin with the book in hand. Went over to the big rocks, and looked really closely at them. Noticed that indeed they were tombstones. Looked at the book and at the stones, and the names in the book matched the ones on these stones. Rest easy.

The Classroom
What can one learn in a classroom? We all learn our letters and numbers and a many other skills as well. One needs to look beyond the basics. Classrooms, as this one can teach many things like how to get along with others in the community, but will it be rote or not?

So You Decided To Become a Nurse Practitioner:
So you decided to become an "Advanced Practice" nurse. Congratulations!... is what I would say if this was a good idea. Grad school? In this economy? What were you thinking? Likely it was something along the lines of either 1) “I've seen these other chucklefucks do it— Why can't I?” or even 2) “I've got a nice career, I should shake it up. I miss feeling like I have no clue what I'm doing.”

Well-wrought, Mark! This one is deep for such a short piece. It reminds me in the best way of when I wandered through National Parks, where they preserved the lands and cemetaries of families long gone.
I like that now that’s my kind of story 😊😝🏆✍️
