The ICU Waiting Room

The Intensive Care Waiting Room is different from any other place in the world, and the people who wait there are different. They cant do enough for each other. No one is rude. The distinction of class and race melts away. The garbage man loves his wife as much as the University Professor loves his, and everyone understands this. Each person pulls for everyone else. In the intensive care waiting room, the world changes. Vanity and pretence vanishes. The universe is focused on the doctor's next report, if only it would show some improvement.

Everyone knows that loving someone else is what life is all about. Could we love like that, if we realized that everyday of life is like a day in intensive care waiting room???

PS:Just came across the title and these thoughts came to my mind.
