Spring is finally ending and nature has run its course…budding and blooming to its FULL potential. Unfortunately, there are also more little creatures / bugs in the air this time of the year. And one of these bugs has just bombarded my household and occupants…funnily, apart from myself. Thank God, they have all recovered from this ravishing flu viral / bug that it decided to suddenly land on me!!
WOW…what a feeling…lost of appetite, losing of fluids, feeling the chills and feverish at the same time, a splitting headache…I really dislike this feeling. This is truly a “downtime” where I am concerned, as I am sleeping 10 + more hour days. Of course, during this empty fleeting time where I am not achieving anything (so to speak) is also a wonderful time to spend just slowing down and reflecting. How we sometimes take many things for granted…even life and health itself.
It is also a time for Self Care at the highest! I am boosting myself with Immune Boosters, Vitamin Pills / Drinks that would help battle the condition that I am in. Isn’t it an Irony to take care of oneself in times of trouble?
What I learnt from this “downtime” experience (amidst my recovery)…is to take things at a slower pace…better appreciate people and things around me and to take care of the Important things in my life (ie: health)…like a familiar saying to NOT miss something…ONLY when it’s gone!
Are you facing a “downtime” situation in your life now? Take heart…embrace it and be confident…you will surely overcome. But do also remember this could just be…a Defining Moment in the Making. ”smile”
