When the heart beats not only from love

Today I realized again that the heart can beat in different ways. Sometimes - evenly and calmly, when everything is good. Sometimes - quickly and confusedly, when you see the eyes of your loved one. But there is a third rhythm - the one I hear on ambulance calls, when someone is fighting for life.

At such moments, everything unnecessary disappears. There is no fatigue, no time for doubts. There is only a person who needs help, and you - the one who can give it. Every second is worth its weight in gold.

And then ... silence. You go home, hear the beating of your heart and understand: today you made it again.
Love and medicine are similar: there is no time to hesitate. Sometimes one word or touch can save. And in feelings, as in intensive care, the one who acts wins.
