Happy to be back at work after one week of staying at home for a bad cold. The sickness forced itself to me despite of my strong denial. This always been my way of pushing back getting sick, by simply not accpeting the fact that I could get sick.
I beleive it's called the power of mind, or something like that. You convince your body to obey your mind, and the mind says you're not sick.
As kid whenever I found things too difficult to handle, I used to tell myself if you can't handle it no one will. It gave me a sense of control and confidence. I apply the same thing when it comes to diseases. I make sure not to have time to receive them. Like a queen not accepting the enemies, and as you know not always the queen is in charge, the intruders barge in despite the queen's strong objection.
I think it comes from dad's reaction whenever we were sick, he used to say stop convincing yourself you're sick when you're not. Your body is fooling you into sickness you can't give in. The funny thing is that to me it was like the other way around, I was fooling my body to feel healthy when it was not. And now I can't say which method or philosophy is applied when it comes to sickness and me, all I know is that the power of mind much more reliable than a sick body don't you agree?
