Yes. As a medical professional, there have been many times where I've heard statements from my patients that sent chills down my spine. One of the most memorable stories was from an elderly patient with advanced-stage cancer who told me that he had accepted his fate and he wasn’t scared anymore. He said, “I know I won’t be here much longer but I'm at peace knowing that one day soon things will make sense to me; it's all part of something bigger than us." This simple yet profound statement left an indelible mark on me and humbled me in a way no other conversation has ever done before or since.
