It's all in how you look at it.

“If all you can do is crawl, start crawling.” -Rumi
 

Well for the last few days I have been so sick that crawling is all I could do. Litterally. I had the advantage, and disadvantage, of being alone. All I could do was crawl. So I did.

It is interesting how being very sick can be very therapeutic. Over the last few days there was no one here to tend to my needs, or get supplies, or make soup or tea or run a hot bath or give me a hug. I had to do it for myself. Marc would be on the other end of the Skype looking at my patheticness, wishing he could help. I was glad he was not here getting infected! Today is the first day I have been able to spend time out of bed. I realize that being sick was a gift. Yes, a gift. It was a return to the most basic of basics. It was an obligation to do a clean up sort of speak. Time to eliminate what is not feeding me anymore. I was often too exhausted to do anything, even watching a film demanded too much of me. It has been a time to explore my thoughts about what I want and where I want to be in my life.

Any baby will prove that we can cover an amazing distance when we crawl. The bonus is a change of perspective that lets you see the world you live in in a completely different way. Be well everyone!

Namaste!
