Two days of medical leave
The past two days passed by in a daze.
The cough syrup that I took really puts me in a semi-conscious state. I was half-awake, half-asleep.
But the past two days had really given me the much-needed time alone.
Away from my students,
my work,
the burdens I bear...
Away from people,
from even my most loved one..
To just be...
And just... exist
for a while.
Sometimes, we go through life without actually existing, don't we?
I am not thinking about my students and how I cannot help them solve their life's issues.
I am not thinking about my wedding preparation and how to work out the finances.
I am not thinking about the performance tonight.
I am not thinking about anybody or anyone; I am just thinking about recovery and to sleep and to drink water and to take medicine.
And so, for the past two days, I honestly don't know how my time was spent, how time passed me by. I only remembered that I kept sleeping and waking to see that only half-hour has passed or an hour has passed and I was thinking to myself, time passes really slowly when you are so relaxed!
It reminded me of the time in Perth. :)
I really enjoyed my rest these two days.
It actually kind of recharges me and renews me.
And thankfully, my throat recovered in time for a performance at a company event.
It is now Sabbath.
Peace.
