Speechless

Being sick is the worst feeling. 

I wonder how all this mucus and phlegm flows unceasingly from my nose and throat. It is quite disgusting, really.

The hardest thing for me this past week was the fact that I could not speak. 

Yes, me, who cannot keep my mouth shut for any extended period of time. 

And in a way, it helped. I realised there are a lot of things I say that need not be said.

Life can go on smoothly, even if, especially if, I don't come up with any snide remarks. 

Being speechless can be a good thing sometimes.
