What do you like about this subject?  Nursing is such a wonderful career as it opens so many doors for you. You can work in a hospital, in the community and you can take it with you where ever you may go.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  I love learning and I hope to continue to study most of my life. Nursing is always changing and does require an ongoing committment to updating your education, but I've alswyas found it all so interesting.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Personally I think I went in to Nursing because I wanted to know how the body works and we "fix" what's not working properly. I am now a big believer in Preventive Medicine - knowledge helps us help our selfs and avoid the hospital and I love to teach others how to help themselves too.
Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Nursing has been under-appreciated most of it's history, but it does provide the workers with endless personal satisfaction for doing an impornant job. I think society is just waking now to how importnat and valued we really are.
