Am I risking it all? Days of Regret II

In a reflective mood tonight. I am feeling regretful. Have I been hammering my body too hard again? Am I risking my health and “well spell” yet again?

Yes, my health has been the best its been for years. But like grains of sand, I can feel it slowly slipping through my fingers. How do I stop it? I can’t. I can no longer control my body. None of us can. We can only try to manage the cards we have been so cruely dealt.

My health has been a bit wobbly the past few weeks. A migraine has floored me this weekend. A migraine usually strikes when my body is desperately trying to warn me to slow down. Did I listen? No. I went out a walk with my parents this afternoon, albeit a short one. I justified it to myself by saying that I needed fresh air. I suppose I did. Am I pushing it though? How long until my body says enough is enough? This “well spell” will undoubtedly come to an end at some point. I am prepared for it happening. It doesn’t mean that I will be happy about it happening.

How do you deal with “well spells” ending?
