Goals are great for the healthy. Being healthy in of itself is a noble goal. But when one falls ill, it is hard to keep up with the goals you set when you were optimistic and healthy. One learns to take it as it comes, and therefore goals and deadlines must have some leeway.
I've decided to be patient, get my self healthy while I wait. To see what life will bring to me. I am tired of pushing and shoving my way or the highway. I want to let go and trust. I will do my work, my writing everyday, but not expect signs or miracles. I just want to do good work.
I am fighting another total body viral infection. I am so chilled, even though it is 24 degrees Celsius (75 deg. F) outside and sunny. I feel zapped, my throat hurts, my eyes burn, and my nose is running. All my joints feel swollen and it's difficult to move fast. I want to go back to bed and curl up with a good book. Alas, I have a story to finish and it has to get edited first before I send it out this Friday. This is a hard deadline as next week I am on vacation!
I don't want to be sick on vacation either, so I need my rest. Am in a bit of a Catch-22. What to do??
