A Bad Start for 2007?

I have been sick since the eve of Christmas last year. I started with a slight cough, progressing into bad cough 3 days later. I only went to see the doctor the next day (27 Dec 06) and was given some cough mixture and antibiotic tablets with a day MC. I seemed to have got better after the 3rd day of medication, but my cough came back worse than before after I had completed my medication 2 days ago. The clinics are closed for these few days due to the long public holidays here.

I am still in the midst of doing my home spring cleaning (started since Christmas Day), but I just have no energy or mood to continue, feeling so lethargic and sickly now. I am taking a break now to blog a little and hopefully I will feel better and get back to cleaning the mess after this.

I have no resolution for 2007, except I like to take the comments by Richard as my goal, to be "a channel of God's peace":

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

- attributed to St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226)
