Fatigue

I'm tired. The last few days have been long ones. They start early and end late, and I find myself equally engaged in both mental and physical work. Both have been exceptionally difficult this week. I'm beat, and there's still plenty of work to be done before the week is over.

Fatigue is a funny thing. We can suffer from it or revel in it, depending on the circumstances. Fatigue brought on by undue stress, pressure, or general stupidity can wear us out, but fatigue resulting from hard work and accomplishment helps us sleep better at night. We know we've made a difference - we've done something of value.
