When you’re down and you’re feeling sickly,
You ache and emotions are “prickly.”
You know you’ll get well,
Then you will feel swell.
You just hope it will happen quickly!
Are you facing holiday hard stuff?
I missed 3 days of Thanksgiving events.
Some sort of “flu bug,” I guess.
Sore head, sore tummy,
Laid me low.
My tummy hurt before I ate,
Felt yucky after a few bites of food.
Most comfort was two small bites
And stop.
On this back-to-health side,
I laugh when I realize it was
Very effective for dropping pounds.
Wasn’t funny at the time.
Guess this is one of my Shifts—#3.
“Find humor in the hard stuff.”
May I try on humor.
That viewpoint shift
Can soften my take-away thoughts.
Helpful.
As Rob said years ago,
When he was a teenager:
“The good thing about being sick,
Is that it makes you REALLY glad
TO BE WELL.”
Hugs,
Lin
I’m sorry to hear of your infirmity over the holiday, but Rob really hit the nail on the head! Also I appreciated the Albert Einstein quote, I have never seen that, it’s so true it makes me smile 🙂
