Yesterday, pain in my back grew so fast that I woke up just fine, but as I progressed through the day, pain was all that I felt in my every move and that I ended my day hardly making through the staircase up to my bedroom. It was the same challenge when I needed to have the surgery done on me.
Back in 2010, I had the same planned vacation to Boracay cancelled, with all the tickets already paid. It was about a broken relationship which is a different story altogether.
Oh well. I am not going to complain. This is my body and I only have one shot at it. Lucky that I was given the chance to decide if it is a go or a no go for the travel. I am choosing not to go. This is my body and I have to obey it. I need to be well, according to my body’s own pace and time.
It cannot be severed.
It cannot be compromised.
Maybe next year. And I hope Boracay will still be the same (or even better). My love for the beach will gladly take a backseat. For now.
