It's Time To Rest

Sometimes when we think that everything is going well, we get sidelined unexpectedly with an illness. That is one thing that we have no control over. Although we may fight against being sick, it becomes more and more difficult when our bodies refuse to listen to us. No matter how much we want to believe that we are in control of our life, our body has a mind of it's own. When it's time to rest, we have to rest. Instead of fighting what is inevitable, why don't we just get in bed and leave the world behind to solve it's own problems. Know that when we rest our body, our mind becomes much more clearly. Today, listen to your body. If it's time to rest, then make yourself comfortable. The universe will wait for you as you recover.  


Maybe if I'm really quiet, no one will notice how long I'm sitting here...

(It's funny how driving 3 hours from Portland to Seattle in the pouring rain seems to feel more like 6 when you're coughing and blowing your nose the whole way. There is never a good time to get sick. Now is definately not the best time.)
