Pop... Goes the Calf Muscle

So apparently I sprained my left calf muscle playing tennis yesterday. It was kinda scary. I had chased after a ball and then I heard and felt a loud "POP" and collapsed to the floor. Had my mom and justine pick me up from the park to go to urgent care. Two hours later, I was in crutches and an ace wrap.

I confess that I am slightly worried about my condiction, but Phillipians 4:4-7 comes to mind (and came to mind as it happened):

"4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Interestingly, I do feel a peace in the situation.

The biggest worry for me wasnt even about work, but Tough Mudder. While hanging out in my room, playing boardgames and watching K-dramas, my mom and baby sister asked, "How will you do your Tough Mudder now?"

My answer?

"If need be, wheel chair. If I must, crutches. If I have no choice, I'll crawl! I paid for that thing damnit and I'm going to do it! That's what makes me a Tough Mudder!"

I guess I'm a glutton for punishment. Naw... I just want my money's worth!
