It takes a sick person to value the gift of a healthy body. To be able to move around with no hindrance, pain, fatigue or ache.

What started as a minor catarrh and slight headache ended up halting my activities for almost a week.

I woke up feeling extremely tired and experience the inability to breathe freely. "Oh it's just catarrh" I thought, so I took some lemon grass tea afterwards I took the Loratidine tablet to feel some relief.

Little did I know that, it was just the beginning of pang of distress. I started to feel very feverish late in the midnight.

The next morning was nothing to write home about, as I couldn't eat, or do anything.

My little friend came around as usual to spend the weekend with me, only to find me in a very critical situation.

She hurried to a nearby pharmacist, and got me some drugs after explaining my condition to the pharmacist.

I started the anti malaria drugs immediately and I only got a little relief two days after. I couldn't sew, do the laundry, or my daily house chores, it was just sleep after sleep.

Then, I realized too often we take for granted the ability to walk around, work, dance, eat, and just have fun.

I'm just recovering and I'm very excited to feel alive again. The pharmacist told me to have enough rest and stay hydrated as my stress level triggered the fever.

I'm going to take it easy on myself moving forward. I'll try so hard to sleep early, take enough fruits, drink lots of water and stay happy.
(Can you believe that I still sewed today?)

Taking some time off will affect a lot of things like the pending outfit I have to make for my clients, and other activities but health is wealth.

It's one who is strong, alive and healthy that can achieve a lot and stay productive.

Due to this condition, I missed about five days here. I actually lost my writing streak, but I'm really not pained cause I knew it wasn't an intentional act.

Some days we can feel so drained and taking a break isn't out of place at all.

It's better to be rejuvenated and get back better and stronger. It's a new Month and I'm starting this month with gratitude. I'm grateful for the few people in my life who actually care about me and my welfare.

I would be enjoying a slow living henceforth until I feel very strong to continue with the pace I started with.

Don't take for granted the simple things of life, you'll look back and realize it was the most important part of your life, but you were too busy to notice it.

Cheers to a beautiful month. I hope this month brings you so much love and answered prayers. I hope you find peace and find a reason to be grateful every day.

Nothing beats a heart filled with gratitude as it opens more doors for better opportunities and greater heights.
