Stirring

Last week the entire family came down with flu (the kind which comes with fever and knocks you out flat, LoL). But that was last week. I'm starting this week with an irritating lethargy - little if not zilch enthusiasm for anything. Reading certain emails this week didn't help. How could it? When it's a heartbreaking plea to extend his life for another 30 years? When it's about some big plans which seem extravagant and unnecessary? There were other questions too which of all times came flooding back now....questions which i have no answer for. For a long time.

Oh well, it will pass, if not now then later. It will pass. A good book which i started yesterday is already lifting me. It's not a happy story (that's besides the point) but the writing stirs. I've enjoyed The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini last Christmas and this is his second book A Thousand Splendid Suns. Yes, it stirs....
