For the last ten days, I’ve been at the mercy of a cough. In the evening, it’s the worst, holding me hostage from much-needed sleep. So last night I tried something different. I let the cough happen. After a few hearty hacks, my heaving chest slowed to stillness. I was awake a bit longer and then sleep arrived at last. Sweet and silent. What other areas of our lives do we fight against rather than go with the flow of life’s breath? Of course, there are things that deserve a fight. Most things require patience though. Something a hacking cough will teach you if you allow it.
