Dark eye circles

Currently listening to: Nothing

I've been wanting to write about this, but have either been putting it off, or forgetting about it.

Anyway. I mentioned two entries ago that I have been coughing my guts out. It sucks falling sick in a foreign place, far away from home, because your family is not around to look after you. Sure you can look after yourself, but still, being sick means feeling extra vulnerable to everything. This includes feeling extra lonely, feeling extra sad, feeling extra this, feeling extra that; basically, you feel extra of everything.

This past week was no exception. Only, instead of feeling extra "bad", I felt extra "good". In fact, I felt truly and utterly blessed, all thanks to my friends here in Dunedin.

Thank YOU, for inviting me over to your place for dinner and soup. Thank YOU, for getting me the cough syrup and bringing it to me. Thank YOU, for giving me your number (despite the fact that I already have it) and offering food takeaway services. Thank YOU, for checking up on me on a daily basis. Thank YOU, for feeding me ever so often. Thank YOU, for offering to keep me company. Thank YOU, for keeping me company. Thank YOU, for unwittingly (on your part) being there to take my mind off things just when I needed it the most.

Thank YOU all.
