My mind is in a fog. I have become sick myself and I am in that state of consciousness where everything is only half clear and the rest of it seems to be cloudy on the edges.
As I woke this morning and began attempting to go about my daily affairs in this state of mind, something occurred to me and I thought I should write it down before I let it slip away in the fog of sickness.
This cloudiness could be an analogy for how many of us spend the majority of our lives. We see just clearly enough to get us from point “A” to point “B” safe and unscathed, but our peripheral is always foggy. We form opinions based on the things we see right before us at that particular moment, and the big picture goes unnoticed.
I find myself being very optimistic about the sickness that has invaded my body. Soon, it will play itself out, and the cloud will be lifted, and once again my mind will be able to decipher things more clearly. If I am smart, I will remember this lesson long after the sickness is gone.
Funny how something as mundane as a virus can offer a life lesson.
peace, wayf
