A Bruise on my Left Knee

Time Flies in your Negligence

About a month ago I felt to the ground while running on a little lane to a small event held in the stadium hall, and bumped my left knee black and blue.

I knew it hurt, and it was a sore to the eye, but I just refused to look at it or even think about it. My reasoning was that, as there was nothing I could do about it, I might as well leave it alone. Let time fly in my negligence, and before I realized it, it would be healed.

And it worked. It worked perfectly.

This morning I got up and found blood veins pumped up around my left eye. Since it was not itchy, I guessed it was not caused by bacteria, but more likely harmful chemicals like toilet water. I really should have been more careful with all the things I used daily, and led a more healthy life.

But I knew full well it was wrong to regret - regrets are deeply related to a perfectionist outlook of life, where you want to raze down what have been established as a whole and build from scratch. But this is will only bring about more and more new beginnings and unfinished projects. What I need is a 'piecemeal approach'(Reading Open Society and Its Enemies recently).

I did some remedies within my ability, and started to do other things. I knew things are in control. I smiled to myself.
