Dear Gloria,
in the following paragraph(s):
"The thing is that you don’t always want to sit still, isn’t that so? The stillness of peace always reigns. There is no escaping it, and yet you escape it with a preponderance of the world. If you had a fortune in the bank and forgot about it, how wealthy are you?
Even if you are the healthiest person in the world but have been swayed by advertising and sentiments of the world and you are convinced you are coming down with something, how healthy are you"
I am not sure of the meaning of "coming down with something" in the context of the sentence.
Thanks
