I am on day 7 of recovering from a cold. This one hit particularly hard. Being in bed, recovering, eating specific foods and avoiding others, in pain, has been a reminder that good health is everything. Health is the stuff rational sick billionaires would give it all for. Health is a quiet and unannounced privilege that we can easily take for granted. It precedes everything else we want, or wish to have. It is something to be grateful for, and cherish, for it is not eternal.
