Via Negativa

"u have to be disciplined if u want to do well in sports.."
- Cai Yinhong

I received an sms from a dear friend after I told her about how I had fallen on my already sprained thumb.

I never thought that it would come to a stage like this where rest would be the only way forward. It doesn't make sense- Athletes beat their bodies, not laze around.

The fencing competition is in 2 months, and I'm going to be out of action for at least a month.

But there's a time and place for everything. As much as I want to recover, the more I try to push through the injury, the longer I'm taking to get better.

Now is the time to be very disciplined, and rest.

"And the hardest part... 
Was letting go, not taking part."
