It has been two days. Two excruciating days. To tell you honestly, I’d rather be so terribly ill that I’d be forced to stay home and rest, than to be physically able but not a hundred percent.
I can’t say I am ill as I am still capable of doing what I normally would, like take a bath, do a few chores at home, commute to work, and, hence, do my work at the office. But when plagued with a vicious cough or intermittent surge of headache, it somehow impedes you from perfecting what you have set out to do.
It’s neither of the two extremes – not a trash nor a work of perfection. It’s what’s in between: mediocrity.
So, where do I settle? I can’t start to pinpoint on my own negligence when it comes to my health. I haven’t been doing anything that’s extremely hazardous to my body. The weather? Sure, it has been trying. But, as much as it is unpredictable, I sort of been able to predict that it will always be unpredictable.
So, how do I make both ends meet? I guess I should stop making excuses. Instead, while the cough and headache is still bothering me, I should religiously take my medicines. And hope that they work and I’d be any better soon.
And then wait some more…
