Tomorrow, I will be admitted to the hospital.

It will be my first time staying in a hospital for more than two days, so I find myself a little tense about the experience itself. But there is no point in thinking too much about it. I will simply follow the instructions and move through it quietly.

There will be a major moment — the surgery. But I also hope it may become an opportunity to reset my thoughts, perhaps even to restart something within me.

It may not work.
It may work.

Either way is fine.

There are already a few things scheduled after I leave the hospital, and that brings a small sense of reward waiting on the other side.

Rather than waiting for the storm to pass,

I will try to see it as if

there had been no storm at all.
