Here is where you tell me that FRANKLY I SUCK and that I shouldn’t be DOING these things at all, and where I apologize to you for taking almost twenty minutes away from you that you will never ever ever get back.
Or, you know, you could say something else. Heh!
Hello, my caffeinated lovelies! Well, perhaps you’re not caffeinated. But you’re still lovely.
Last weekend, I had a migraine pretty much the entire time. It was especially bad on Sunday. Nothing I did would make it go away – I tried all my usual tricks.
Plenty of water. Extra rest. Time away from the computer (didn’t even turn it on Sunday). No reading. Not much television. Eating bland food. Taking headache medicine. NOTHING WORKED.
I knew it was the sort of headache that wasn’t going to budge until it was ready, and I just had to wait it out. I HATE waiting things out. I would much rather be able to take over the situation and fix it.
Sometimes you can’t fix things. Sometimes you have to wait them out.
Often, our only choice is to be as patient, as wise, and as careful as we can be during a rough time. For whatever reason, we can’t actually do anything to make it all better.
All we really have control over at any given moment is the way we decide to BE in that situation.
We can be upset, angry, and whiny. We can be listless and depressed. Or we can do something better: we can recognize that the situation is bad, that we don’t like it, and that we just have to wait it out. It’s okay to be upset that the situation even exists. It’s okay to wish for something better.
But don’t assume you can’t learn something from continuing to be in the moment, where you are, right now. Just be here. No matter how painful, no matter how little control you have. Just be here.
