After being sick for over a week, I feel slightly better today, allowing me to catch up on the stuff I am interested in. This period of slight calm was after multiple consultations and blood tests. Thankfully, every test came out negative. My illness turned out to be a severe viral infection. However, it impacted my platelet count, making me feel fatigued. Overall, though, I am on the path to recovery.
I am still resting when I am not feeling my best. Sleeping. Reading. Watching. When I feel better, I have a good time chatting with my family. It is so heartening to have yourself surrounded by your loved ones in such times. I am sure it speeds up the recovery.
This low period also abruptly halted the period of stress-filled days, which was definitely a positive. I recently read this stoic wisdom, which I could no doubt take inspiration from.
Don’t fight with reality, but bring your will into harmony with it, and focus on where your power lies.
As I look back at the week that has passed, I am glad I have put it behind me. As I look ahead to the coming week, I know I need to summon all the positivity to face the struggles that lie ahead. It is time to buckle up once again.
