Personal nursing philosophy

          As an art and a science, how has your personal nursing philosophy unfolded? Have there been ideas that have challenged your personal values or assumptions? Have there been ideas that have caused you personal conflict and may lead to deconstructing those dispositions in a critical manner? What actions have you taken that illustrate your personal nursing philosophy? Describe your own definition of the concepts involving the meta-paradigm of nursing. Has your first written philosophy of nursing changed? In what ways?
