Staying home easy when you're queasy
I've been in bed for two days. My body aches, my skin is peeling. I don't even want to look at sunlight for a while. I'll stay inside and drink nettle tea. For now I'll think about the smaller things. I don't trust myself with deeper ideas right now. I'll be like the eagle. People have watched eagles for thousands of years and have tried to connect them with mythology, ancient wisdom, and virtue. I think what's great about the eagle is that they are none of those things. They are animals and think, time to eat a fish and, time to make a nest. I need to think like the eagle right now. Eat my fish and make my nest.
