When Was The Last Time You Felt Down And Out ?

Even my eyes don't want to open

My whole body aches all over

My head feels so heavy

Thoughts that I usually think are all jammed

Like a car in rush hour traffic

No matter how many ways I try to get to my destination

I am still no farther from where I was just twenty minutes ago

It doesn't work

No matter what I try

In doesn't matter what lane you are in

How many times has this happen to you

All you can do is turn up the radio and relax

All in do time you will get where you are going

So that's what I am doing

Finding a day of rest and catch up on my sleep

I am not saying I am sick or I have a cold

All I am saying is my body is trying to tell me something

It is up to me to figure it out

I struggle to bring in good thoughts

It seems a waste of time

I know from past experience this is not true

This is my mind making judgements that are false

I tell my mind no

I know my head aches and my body is weak

What you don't know is that my spirit is stronger than ever

I have come back feeling each emotion

They are real

I just want the aggrivating pain to go away

My sinuses are all blocked and some say it is allergies

Even my teeth hurt

Can you imagine that

Others talk and say it is just a head cold

As I go to work and do my job with ever ounce of energy that I can find

It looks like I have met my match

Now for me to feel better

I have to turn my life around

Soon very soon I will be back to my old self

For now every second seems amplified by one by a thousand

The weather is no help either

It started to rain and now it is raw and chilly

So I look away and think of my wonderful days

Where I have a beautiful flow

An easy day where my mind and body are in tune with each other

Helping and working together in every situation

So what I have to do now

Is regroup and call a meeting

We have met some challanges the last couple of days

By know way does this stop us from doing what we have to do

It makes us focus all our efforts to one common goal

To get better

To feel all the good thoughts

So every bad thought that comes in my mind I search for it's root

Then after discussing it and talking about it

I feel just a slight bit better

O.k. I know it's not much improvement

But it is a start

We have to give it a chance

So for this moment I struggle even to write

I am not going to let this obstacle get in my way

I am going to think of it as a word problem

Where I don't have an answer yet but I am so close

Like working on a puzzle with all it's pieces

It is a little overwhelming

This is the time we collect our thoughts and push ahead

Read something a little light hearted

The funny pages or a comic

That is so pleasing to the eye

Good humor and it is leaving me motivated to do more

As I get up I feel my body struggle

My head spins as I bend over to pick something up

Yes I know your thinking I thought you said you would be better

I will but it takes time

I will try again positive thoughts lead to good health

Good health can only be found by full concentration

Working past the confusion and the human blahs

It took me a long time to write this but I proved to myself it can be done

For now I am returning to bed and get more rest

Thinking it will so nice to feel good again

When I can type and my head doesn't pound with the slightest sound

Of the keys tapping by my fingers

That I have done so many times before and never gave it any thought

It gives me a new perspective on life

Wishing everyone good health and go out and make it a good day

While I pray for my headache to stop and every muscle in my body to be rejuvinated

So I can have full strength and my mind will be clear

A quick cough out of no where

Yes my chest hurts and I feel my lungs shake

That's all for now

There will be an update later

How I got a full recovery

Feeling refreshed and alive

I can't wait

Now that is what I am talking about

Luckily I have the next two day off

Where I can use it to get better

When my whole body feels as light as a feather

So now I take two little blue tablets

Cold and chest medicine

To help for a speedy recovery
