Sickie

mind over matter.
there is a certain percentage of the body, i have discovered,
that is easily controlled with the mind.

i am sick--meaning.. running nose, head pounding,
throat throbbing, and just feeling some sort of miserable.
a little gift from the kindergarten class constantly coughing in my face
while holding my hand with their germie paws they use to pick their
nose all day.

 i told myself, you will not act sick!  you will not feel sick!
YOU ARE NOT SICK!!!!!
well, the symptoms did not disappear.. but i was able to continue
my day and do what I planned to do...
without feeling AS bad!

for first time in my life an illness did not control me.
yay.

Namaste!
