"If you want peace, prepare for war."
Regardless of whoever said this quote, his job and mine are similar in the fact that if we were to achieve our ideal our jobs would become obsolete.
You'll often here a similar sentiment batted around between health professionals without work (such as I right now). I'm sitting in a resident room, bored out of my skull, and part of me really would like a sick baby to be admitted...did I just say that?!?! Sometimes you'll hear the rationalization, "Well, there are going to be sick babies, they might as well be sick here."
Most likely the world is still filled with sick babies. Most likely they have chosen not to come here. I find myself as the steriotypical nieve, overly immature infantry man whose seen little or none of war. Although I've been told it's "bad" I'm so bored I can't help but wish for a little action (despite deep down knowing it to be horrible).

I'm having a tough time finding motivation to do anything, so I thought maybe you could share in this by checking out these demotivational posters that I googled. Cheers.
And some others I thought were funny...
