But the silver lining is, my wrist's now much much better! 'twas sooner than expected. Currently I am typing using both my hands. 😃 N this happiness overshadows the flu.
Wow, I can't begin to tell ya, what a joy it is to be able use both hands.
Ya know what, it made me realize one thing. Over the last month, I just had a minor hairline fracture in my right wrist n evn this made life miserable, while i knew vry well that i'll be fine in a few weeks, yet I left no occasion without cursing my luck n all. Didn't leave one opportunity to display what a poor miserable soul I was n for the first week kept shoutin' at every one to do things for me.
Then I saw this program on TV abt kids who had lost their limbs or weren't born with them n stuff. Man, I felt like such a degenerate. There they showed an example of a li'le boy (abt 9 yrs of age) who had no hands and drew by holding a pencil between his teeth. God friends, I cried watching his spirit (n I am not easy at tears, believe me).
I mean cum to think of it, god gave us so much, yet we are always complaining, are always dissatisfied as if it's god's fault or our parent's fault that we couldn't achieve a few things in life. It sickened me to feel, that evn upon being blessed with such health, a proper body system, good money, great family... what exceptional have I done in my life?
N look at these kids, look at their spirit, look at their optimism. The pain I felt is not even .00001 percent of what they must experience, yet they chose to fight it out. They chose to shine in life despite of such a plight. I have no word for their courage.
I am thankful now that God made me experience that li'le pain. I got a new motivation in life. I, from all my heart, really want to help such differently enabled kids.
Oops, too long? Sorry, got carried away. 😛
