Time trial Thursdays

What are you waiting for?

Here is a challenge. Carefully mind your converstions. You will be amazed that every one with whom you converse is waiting... 

Depending on the object of your wait, waiting might paralyze you.

Waiting is hard enough on its own.

But what to do while waiting is just as demanding. 

While waiting I have cried, despaired, quit, threatened, grown bitter, blamed, denied reality, kicked, argued, questioned, lost sleep and slept too much.  

What's a person to do when waits become unbearable? 

Sometimes answers come from the strangest of places. While walking down the street in Manhattan recently I spotted this sign:


Waiting?

Shine!

Thank you so much for this post. Some days I feel like I am the only one who does and feels all this while I wait. I know that whatever is on the other side is big, just wish I had a clue what that was. May we both have the peace that passes all understanding while we wait.
