I wonder if chemists will ever fully explain why chicken soup is so highly recommended for cold symptoms that the phrase has become a dominant metaphor for healing well beyond the body. I don't know if you will find chicken soup here, but, for what it's worth, I drank one can in the past hour and intend to drink another as soon as it cools enough. Seldom done, seldom mentioned, seldom even thought about, but maybe that is because we are always healing because we are always dying and when the healing becomes a challenge, we reach for remedies on every level. Whether it is physical or psychological, I hope to feel better.
Don't feel so bad today. :)
