Metanoia (n.) The journey of changing one's mind, heart, self or way of life. A doctor's tale! Getting into medical school is tough. Being a good doctor is another story. It tests you in every aspect of your life. Everyday you feel drained. You feel like you are drowning in a never-ending ocean of books. But that's not it all. Some days you wonder if you made the right choice. Follow Rakesh, surgeon by heart in this heart warming tale. ************* This is a one-shot that I wrote for a nation wide contest in my country on the occasion of National Doctor's Day that is celebrated on 1st July every year. And guess what! I came third. I hope you give this a try....
