Toothache and Existence

It started Monday. First it was just a little uncomfortable. Then it got worse and worse till midnight. I couldn't even sleep because of the pain. Finally I managed to fall asleep, only to wake up very early in the morning. Aside from the pain, I felt dizzy and very tired. I called in sick, looked up local dentist and made an appointment.
It took me whole morning to get a bottle of amoxicillin. I worked a little bit in the afternoon, but end up watching movies online. I couldn't eat much. The infection is so serious that it's even a little difficult for me to swallow.

However, the pain, somehow, makes me forget any other troubles or unpleasant things in my life. It happened to me a couple of time before. When I became sick, I started missing the healthy time, which I usually was not very grateful for. The pain is a good reminder. It's saying: look, now you see how worse the life could be. Daily life is very fragile. It could be broken anytime, even without any reason.
