I am not very good at resting- I mean just stopping completely and really doing nothing. However, sometimes it is simply forced upon you. And it was me this week. I drank some bad water- the long and short of it. And have spent the last 2 days 'recovering'. Not the way I would have preferred a mandatory resting period to have taken place, but I can see now it has been benificial to my head space. In that quiet time doing nothing I have gained an opportunity of a wider perspective on our daily lives, things I love, things I'd love to change. Or maybe I'm just desperately seeking a silver lining in a horrible experience. Either way, I'm feeling better now. Grateful for it too.
Honey, I know if you're "down," you're REALLY down. Even as a little girl, you would keep going until you were practically walking in your sleep. Double-sided, burning red ear infection with a high fever, and you'd say, "Mom, I think I'm feeling a little sick". Please DO get the rest you need and know that I wish I could be there to fix some chicken soup and give you tea and a frozen fruit bar or two. Love you--Mom
