Where Is The Blessing In Bellyaching?

Wednesday, September 21st, 2022

(For your information:
“Bellyaching” was family G-rated
Word for b***ching.)

I’ve not been “up-to-par” this week.
Bit of ache in the tummy.
Bit of pain in the neck.
GRUMPY and GROWLING attitude
Beyond belief!

I don’t like that.
Can’t tell if physical aches make
My emotions grow fangs.

Or if sharp-toothed emotions
Make my body ache.

Either way,
Not where I wanted to be.

My tact was to rest,
LOTS—enough to get me from
“Pissy” to grateful.

Now that’s a big order
For MY fang-gleaming, growling state-of-mind.

My pivotal insight:
I realized what an advantage I have,
Being able to rest.
So many folks have no life-space
To be able to take real rest.

Happy to tell you that
I’m much better.
That chance to “look differently” and Rest,

Hugs,
Lin

Limerick:
My body and mind had conspired,
Which made me feel achy and tired.
I found that the best,
Was hours of rest.
Seems just what my psyche required.
