I think we’re all entitled to a definition of today’s title.
en·ti·tled
inˈtīdld,enˈtīdld
adjective
believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.
Yesterday, when I entered the group room, followed by the group members, an entitled person kept talking on the phone despite my multiple requests that he vacate the room so I could start my patient group.
One group member who witnessed this wondered whether the young doctor felt entitled to finish his phone call because medical systems have a hierarchy. I felt entitled to express my opinion that in any medical hierarchy, the patients should be on the top.
We are all entitled to our opinions.
I’m wondering if my photos from yesterday relate to today’s title of “Entitled.” In any case, I’m entitled to share them.
If we realize we are acting in an entitled way, we can always try again with more empathy and compassion.
Here’s “Entitled” by Leighton Meester:
