The Message


This Monday morning I woke up feeling under the weather. Although my whole body hurt, I blamed myself for not being able to get up and go to work. As I roam my mind for some reasons why I woke up feeling this way, many alternatives popped up:
·         Haven’t been getting enough rest.
·         Haven’t been eating properly.
·         End of the school semester and loads to correct and grade.
·         Haven’t been getting enough exercise.
·         Pain in legs has increased intensely.
·         Tension at work has risen.
·         Chaos in the city and in the country.
·         People have been suffering violently.

I am certain that the list is much larger than this; however, as I list the reasons, I start to feel high anxiety.  Life is hard, which is not a surprise to anyone (at least it shouldn't be at this day and age), but couldn't it be just a little lighter?

Nonetheless, as I sit down to have my breakfast or try to make my body accept that breakfast is a necessary meal despite the nausea, I look out my bedroom window ( my breakfast was in bed ) and my eyes witness the following scenes. I am reminded to just live the moment. This is what I saw:
