Creative Spirit

My creative spirit was forced into exile for the past few days. Mr. Influenza came for a visit, and really put a damper on my plans for this week. Too sick to work, and too tired to care. I’m surrounded by Kleenex boxes, sore throat lozenges, a cup of hot herbal tea, and books to read.

I discovered there are some positive things that can come out of being sick with the flu. Being sick allows us to appreciate many things we tend to take for granted, and also forces us to slow down and smell the roses.
