Pause

For the past few weeks, I felt so tired and cranky. I literally dragged myself to work, whined over small things, threw tantrums here and there. I found myself wondering how would I sustain my uprightness for a long day ahead when upon waking up, I already felt drained and exhausted. To make matters worse, I was knocked down by the deadly trio---sore throat, colds and cough. I was so unwell, it manifested through my mood swings. The Grinch inside, my shadow, got the best of me. I turned out to be the worst version of myself.

I need a breather. A vacation from the hurly-burly of city life. A break.

Sometimes a pause is what a person needs to regroup in order to assess things clearly and objectively.

Sigh.
