thoughtful thursday
i have not been well this week; suffering from a spring cold that has knocked me flat. although unwell isn't what anyone would think of as a good time, there are benefits when minor illness strikes. staying home from work or school gives an unplanned break from routine. the comforts of illness are many: family concern and attention, hot tea, soup, ice cream, favorite movies while blobbing on the couch, naps and no expectation that anything other than getting well is to be accomplished. none of these comforts are unique to illness as we have them otherwise as well. however, they are all the more special when they are offered as remedies for the restoration to health. and minor illness, if we pay attention, can remind us just how wonderful good health is and how we must take appropriate action to protect it.
