This week I had a close encounter of the worst kind. I got to "enjoy" an intestinal virus (not flu, as my wife reminded me) this week. It started on Tuesday night. I had been invited to go with a student to the Pistons game. (I need to write more about this experience soon.) But at the game I started to get sick. I spent most of Tuesday night floating in and out of sleep and much of Wednesday sleeping on the couch, trying to feel better. The rest of the week has consisted of trying to feel better and getting caught up...and getting ready for Illuminate!
Sickness has a way of reminding us that the world does not revolve around us. We can be lying in bed and the world contines on without us. We are important, but not central, to the happenings of the world. I hope I don't need to be reminded again in THAT way for a long time.
shine!
