Wishing for a speedy recovery!

I have caught cold (or the scorching summer heat???) since a few days... I have a runny nose, watery eyes and the most irritating thing is I have a sore throat. My voice has become sweeter though, and this is the only good thing about having a rhino virus in you!!

Yesterday I went to my office although I wasn't feeling like because I had to go to RR early in the morning to submit some assignments (but could not submit coz the teacher didn't show up), and then I thought it would be okay if I went to the office and completed some articles. I was feeling bad all day due to an ill health but I stayed until the last minute. Once I was home, I just slept, slept and slept. This morning, I felt a little better but teary swollen eyes compelled me to take a leave at office. Complete rest all day!

In the afternoon however, I heard a person say "The most common crime people do is killing time." I agree somehow, and today I was doing the same. Just turning this side and that side and wishing that the day ended soon. And now, it's 7 pm and I can no longer resist lying down in the bed, having nothing to do. I can hear my mom grumping... coz she still is telling me "lie down and rest, I will bring you some soup"... If I go to bed for another few minutes, I am going to be insane. Sorry mom...

My health has always been the negative aspect of my life. My mom said that I had caught pneumonia twice when I was an infant and so I am very vulnerable to cold. I try to be careful most of the times but then when it rains, I can't help myself let a few drops fall on me. Rain is so beautiful, and it gives me such a nice feeling, just that it ruins my health.

It's been only about 2 months that I have joined VOW and I have to take a sick-leave... I remember writing, in the application, young, enthusiastic, with "sound health"... such a fake thing... but then.. it's ok!! No one is well all their life...

I don't know what more to write. I just wish that I get well soon. I plan to keep myself away from guilty, or rather, unhealthy pleasures like getting wet in rain, enjoying ice-cream... at least for a time being. When I was in school, I used to wish that I fell ill coz I could skip classes then. But now, if there's something that I really hate, it's to lie down in bed, doing nothing... wishing to recover as soon as possible!!

So poo, I wish for 'your' speedy recovery. Get well sooooooooon!!

I am sad to read that you are sick. But even when you are so sick, you can write nicely.So you are very energetic poonam. And you might not know that to be ill and lie down in bed sometimes is healthy for both physical and mental! Quite paradoxical, but true.... If you have a strong will power you can treat yourself.I think you have that!!! Get well soon!

Dear Sooman,
Thanks a lot. I had thought of mailing you but this way, you would be more surprised... and happier... I am quite well now.
See you!!
