Too Much

[poliphilo]

 I discovered a few months ago- rather to my surprise- that I had developed a preference for sitting down. It wasn't that standing up was painful or even tiring but if I was chatting to people and there was a chair handy I would pull it towards me and sit. The body has its own wisdom- which it doesn't necessarily share with the mind. 

The body wears out. I wish it wouldn't...

Our trip to London on Tuesday was too much. I  pushed myself too far, the distances we walked were too great, the crowds were too oppressive, the chairs- especially the one on the train coming home, were hard and uncomfortable-  

And I'm still recovering...
