In a fictional book world, we can create anything that we imagine. That gives us endless possibilities. It would be a place where beauty overwhelms us, where there is peace, respect, and unconditional love. What would I do there? It would be such fun to be creative, yet scientific at the same time. Perhaps I could be part of a group of people who create new possibilities and use the book as a platform to teach others. (less)

Quotes by Lynn McLaughlin (?)

“Does our ego lead us to believe that we are irreplaceable at work? Clearly, this notion is far removed from reality. Regardless of the reason for an absence, someone else steps in and the job carries on.”
― Lynn McLaughlin, Steering Through It: Navigating Life-Threatening Illness...Acceptance, Survival and Healing
