I miss me
"To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one’s family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one’s own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him."
The above quote is for you to reminisce on and understand that everyone want happiness and the only way is to control our minds to find the way. An angry man can never find happiness but to learn how to control his mind and emotion. An uncontended man can never find happiness but to live within his means and limit and always appreciate the little he has. An unforgiving being will never find happiness because it would be far from him until he learns to let go and forgive completely.
When I read @infinity article, he made me remember those days I do visit more than 50 articles. I miss my activeness then. I miss that moment where I would feel relaxed and satisfied visiting some articles especially my followers and I get ready for the next day. I miss the time when I would be at home all day happy to log into readcash and start interacting. Since we resume this January, it has always been tough to even read and comment on 5 articles before resting. The stress has been from another realm. The painful part is returning from school in the evening and still trying to find what to eat. So most times, I wake up early to prepare food that would still remain so that when I come back from lecture, I would see something to hold my stomach with even if at all I would be cooking.
This time around, I feel so bad not visiting many users, still your supports has always kept me going. At times, when I have little time to spare, I only visit users who commented on my previous articles so it doesn´t look like they are always coming and I didn´t reciprocate. Something about me is that I do return people´s favor so I don´t feel indebted in anyway.
Though, I know I will not overstress myself, but to take my rest when I need it. Last night, I developed eye strain and I decided to check online to know what the problem was and I found out that I heard Asthenopia. Every symptoms suit my problem which are;
Pain around the eyes
Headache that may occur when using the eyes
Watery eyes
Blurred vision
Finding it difficult to keep your eyes open
When you are experiencing these symptoms in your eyes just like me, you have asthenopia.
What really causes Asthenopia? The first is when you have stressed and fatigued the eyes, when your eyes are opened to brightness, reading for a long period, driving for long without taking a rest and stressing your eyes to see in a dark environment instead of using a torchlight.
The solution is to apply the 20-20-20 rule to take a break. You have to shift your eyes to look at an object or anything 20 feet away for 20 seconds, every 20 minutes. Also reduce the light on your phone or laptop screen and then avoid a bright light in your room. Then, you can also close your eyes for some time to let it rest.
When I came back from school yesterday, I slept from 1pm and woke up at 7pm and I felt better. I had to use my spec in front of my system and I worked for three hours visiting articles before I slept back.
Next week is kind of free lecture week except the two classes we are having. The following week is the day we await and next week would be free for us to prepare for the exams. I would try my best too. Today will end our final year week but I decided not to go anywhere so I can give myself enough rest. I will be feeding our eyes with pictures tomorrow by God´s grace.
Thanks for reading

I'm sorry about your eyes princess. My eyes sometimes hurt also. I have a blurred vision that's why I'm using eyeglasses princess. I have a headache if sometimes I didn't wear it.
Radiation is not good for our eyes. Too much lightness and gadget in long hours is not good. How's your eyes now princess?
