Yesterday I was down with what a friend of mine said, was a cigarette and coffee overdose. What happened to me was; that I had a bad cough, high fever and a terrible body ache. I was furious at having being subject to this condition.
Today when I turned up for work, I was furious with myself for having put myself in such a situation where I have given the opportunity to someone else to point a finger at me. Yet, the truth is that what I have gotten into is my responsibility and mine alone.
The point is, sometimes we think that our feelings are a product of other people’s thoughts, words, or actions. Yet, the truth is that they are our own.
I would have to be more mindful of what I fill up my veins with. Better luck, the next time!
