worried sick

i’ve been sick with fever and flu, or an amalgamation of both maladies, for the past week. this is perhaps one of the longest bout of fever/flu I’ve had, but regardless, I kept soldiering on with the duties and responsibilities of being a boss of a small startup, where nothing really moves if the boss doesn’t stick his nose in it.

there’s also the looming prospect of moving into the new office, with its own challenges and obstacles.

i had to sit myself down yesterday and had a good long think.

normally, when i’m sick like this, there is a reason for it. it’s not just my body giving way to viruses but normally, there’s a psychological reason for the physical weakness. what’s festering at the back of my mind, that has me so worried and tossing and turning in the middle of the night with translucent nightmares that slip out of my hands the moment I wake up in cold sweats.

I really had to come clean with myself, and when I did, I found the answers that I needed to move ahead.

Once this happened, I knew that I was now on the road to recovery, and as I suspected, the fever quickly receded away like shadows seeping away in the face of the blinding light of truth.
