I ' ve been miserable the past three days , but only physically . Mentally I feel so awesome , so incredibly happy and content ( though I ' m not going to lie Monday through Thursday were really rough on me ) . I ' ve had a cold for the better half of the last week , my muscles ache , and I ' m possibly slightly dehydrated ( but I ' m working on that as I type ! ) .Anyways , on to Hurricane Ike .

Question: How is it possible for the speaker to feel good mentally and unwell physically ?
The person has the ability to maintain a positive outlook and see themselves through the uncomfortable physical sensations
