Little Thoughts

Second full day feeling yucky. I am done with this. Done with all-natural, hippy dippy, keep your immune system strong by drinking fluids and waiting it out. No more! I am going to bed tonight with a full barrage of medication in my system. Sudafed, Robitussin, Ibuprofen and Vicks Vapo-Rub. O yes. I like to consider myself a fairly patient person, really I don't get too fed up with traffic, long lines, and the like. But being sick...I don't handle that well for very long. I'm sure if you know me at all, you will understand why this is. Weakness. Inability to ignore my physical limitations. Mortality. This sucks. Tomorrow, oh my body, when I wake up, this better be over.

In other news, I am really wishing right now that I had strong ability to relate to all different kinds of people immediately. I feel like this is something I cannot do.

I have been thinking a lot of this hymn lately, and I wanted to share it. Every time I think of this hymn, I think of Kelsey because she hated this song. That makes me happy because I hate it sometimes too.

My Life Flows On

My life flows on in endless song above earth's lamentation
I catch the sweet, tho far off hymn that hails a new creation

No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since Love is Lord of Heaven and Earth
How can I keep from singing?

Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear that music ringing
It finds an echo in my soul. How can I keep from singing?

No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since Love is Lord of Heaven and Earth
How can I keep from singing?

What though my joys and comforts die? The Lord my savior liveth
What though the darkness gather 'round? Songs in the night he giveth.

No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since Love is Lord of Heaven and Earth
How can I keep from singing?

The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart, a fountain ever springing!
All things are mine since I am his! How can I keep from singing?

No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since Love is Lord of Heaven and Earth
How can I keep from singing?

Okay, goodnight.
S.
