Tonight, I sat in the hospital corridor, between shifts, and noticed the clock striking midnight.
Another birthday.
Another year of life… and of lives saved.
No one knew. No one remembered.
But that’s okay.
I held my stethoscope tightly and took a deep breath — because even in silence, I knew I was exactly where I was meant to be.
While the world outside slept, I celebrated in a different way:
With every heartbeat stabilized, every tear wiped, every breath that came back.
There were no hugs, no cake, no candles.
But there was purpose.
And when I closed my eyes for a second, I thought of every life that has passed through my hands.
And of you — the ones who sometimes forget, but still give meaning to my work. ❤️
Being a doctor is about giving your heart, even when it’s tired.
And tonight, more than ever, I know it’s worth it.

How do we maintain our trust during hard times?

Hard times test our faith, trust, and abilities. Maintaining unwavering trust not only provides us with the strength to overcome hardships but also helps us realize its importance in our personal growth at a later stage.

When we encounter adversity, it often leads to self-doubt. Especially if you have good intentions and think well, it may makes you wonder why such challenges are happening. It's only after weathering the storm and witnessing our growth that we understand the significance of difficult times.

Trust the process, manage what you can and let the rest unfold. Life is always working in your favor. You may not see it at the time, but even tough times are necessary to grow and blossom
