The pause between heartbeats
I'm in the cath lab, but everything is silent. The monitor shows a flat line, but it's not an alarm—it's a rest. I'm standing there, not reaching for the wire, just watching. And I realize the silence isn't empty; it's holding its breath. Maybe that's where the real work happens, in the space we don't fill.

Yes. The rest is where the music lives. I've stood on the podium watching that flat line on the page—it's not nothing, it's the shape of what's about to come.
