Hi Steemians,
When I was little being sick was almost as terrible as now, but it had it's benefits. I didn't have to fulfill various responsibilities or expectations, parents would fuss over me in a good way, and I get to stay home and not go to school. Having fever and flu symtoms are never fun nor is being in bed most of the day. However, I enjoyed it a bit. Perhaps, the worst thing about it was not being able to taste food. It was sort of like taking a vacation from life and school work for a little while until I got better.
Now that I'm an adult I don't have any benefit to being sick. I have responsibilities and expectations to fulfill and people are not as caring about me as when I was little. In fact, being sick is a real inconvenience. I been sick for the last couple of weeks and it's been nothing but trouble. I still have to pay bills, I still have to study, and I still have to try to work. Since becoming an adult I never found a bright side to being sick.
What about you guys? ^^
