Yesterday, I went over to a colleague's apartment for coffee.
She kept on talking about her plans over the Easter weekend. When people keep on blabbing on and on about their plans, I believe they should be sensitive to the people they are talking to.
I have been forced to turn into a recluse after my back injury. Whenever, my pains flare up, I have to rewind and rewind in my mind, things that I might have done to worsen my pain. Most of the times, I can't remember anything specific. But, to lessen the chances of future injury, I have restricted my social activities. I rarely eat out. I seldom go out shopping. I hardly visit my colleagues - not that they are complaining. So, it's great if your weekend is jampacked with plans - you do not need to rub in that you are having a wonderful time out in the open amongst the clear blue waters of the California coast or among the snow-capped mountains - while all I can manage is to sit at home and mope.
This well-meaning lady also had a piece of sage advice when I left her apartment - 'Everything that happens is for the good'. I can think of no good in the present, near or far future that came out of my back injury. It has limited my life in a way and at a time which is beyond my worst nightmares. Inspite of that, I cope everyday only to be at the receiving end of such saintly nuggets of gold. I will keep my complaints to myself. Please keep your advice with you.

I owe this apology to the lady mentioned in the post.
ReplyDelete1. She did all my grocery when I was cooped up in my apartment.
2. She carried my laptop home from office on occasions that I could not.
3. She slept in my apartment the first week when I hurt my back.
4. She was the only friend I had in an alien country when I was under house arrest due to the back pain.
Goes to prove how an acute pain can turn a normal person to a sourpuss. People who know me well will vouchsafe that I never backbite and rarely gossip. I apologize wholeheartedly to my friend who read this post and was deeply hurt. However, the good news is that we have since resolved our differences and are friends again. I will give her this - she is much more forgiving than I am :)
