So as most of you will hopefully have realised, I fractured my wrist about a month ago.
I have been constantly trying to focus on what I can do, but it was increasingly irking me that conditions were less than ideal, more inefficient than they could have been. Usually, this builds up to a peak, when there is a teary outburst, followed by annoyance at not being able to control my emotions.
This has been continuously exacerbated lately (seriously, has anyone watched Stranger than Fiction? I feel like someone is trying to write stuff into my life to keep it "interesting"). But sometime in the last week, I had just gotten off the bus to uni (when I usually do my Bible reading) and I was pretty cranky about what I couldn't do, which included putting on my backpack with any semblance of grace ... it felt like a calm gust of wind blew by (maybe one did), and the thought popped into my head "It's okay. Things aren't always perfect. But God will see that you have enough to get the job done". So recall bias in action... I don't know what the exact words were, but essentially, it has helped me accept/be more resigned to my state of temporary disability.
And the song to go with this is The Beatles - Hey Jude. Go listen to it =)
Listened to the song! It was on loop in the background while I was assignment-ing =).
