Know Thyself Post #67

Know Thyself through your HISTORY:

Can you remember the last time you had sick day? Where someone had to call/email into wherever you were supposed to go that day and explain how you weren’t going to make it in. Can you remember? Was it recent or not since you were a kid?

If it was recent: Think back to it: Did you feel so bad you REALLY couldn’t go in, or just bad enough? Did anyone take care of you? If so, have you ever taken care of them? What would you say was your prevailing feeling that day? Did you do anything interesting? Did you seize this day? What was the best thing you did that day?

If you haven’t called in sick since you were a little kid, um, good for you? Or maybe not so good? If your life is tyrant-free and allows for it, maybe you should call in not-sick? If you can remember back when you actually stayed home from school, try and remember how it felt? Did anyone take care of you? If so, have you since then, ever taken care of them? What would you say was your prevailing feeling that day? Did you do anything interesting? Did you do anything worth telling your friends about next time you saw them? What was the best thing you did that day?

If you were to prepare for ‘next time’ and wanted to have something on-hand to learn, or relearn, what would you choose?

Some ideas for things to check out found in most abodes:

  • The 7th book on any shelf
  • That drawer over there
  • The 23rd recipe in a cookbook selected at random
  • That closet over there
  • The unlabeled truck/box/container up in an attic/down in a basement/high on a shelf and/or buried behind many other things, that contains….well…you’re not really sure
