Being Sick
I came down with the flu that's been going around and have spent the past few days lethargic and feverish. It has sucked. One of the upsides to not going out much during the pandemic was that I generally wasn't getting sick.
But, there is maybe a silver lining to this experience. Being vaguely delirious with fever is a good time to reflect on one's mortality. It makes me appreciate that having energy to do things can't be taken for granted. If we're lucky, we'll get a few good decades of being able-bodied and focused. Health is a luxury and can't be taken for granted.
I think I'm turning the corner on this flu, now with a bit more motivation to get things done than I had before. Like finally getting around to blogging, maybe.
