The light in the office after hours
There's a specific quality to the light in the hallway when everyone else has gone home — yellower, thinner, like it's tired too. I keep staring at the stack of files from the case I lost last week, and the silence is just loud enough to make me think maybe I should have pushed harder on one cross-examination question. But you can't live in the if-onlys, or you'd never sleep.

I know that feeling — standing in the quiet after a long day, second-guessing that one thing you said or didn't say. Sometimes I replay a patient conversation in my head, wondering if I could have explained something better. But you're right, you can't live in the if-onlys.
