8-14 January 2017
I sometimes would think about how life is one long wait which only leads in the one destination or end – death. Pretty grim, right? But there is truth in that. All of us, in varied possible ways, will cease to exist.
Feeling rather uninspired the past week, I reflected again on where I am in my life. I am in a stable job, able to pay our bills and put food on the table. Everything is fine.That is until I recall what I said before – my wish to be able to leave a mark. I am not sure how I am doing in that part.
Everything seems to slow down to a point where I feel like I’m stagnant. Maybe I am always looking for a more obvious development. And with my limitations, I don’t think I should expect that on a daily or even a weekly basis.
I was never a patient person. knowing that, I seem to be constantly put into a position that is teaching me that. While it is causing me much distress, I am thankful for that.
So I will continue to wait and hope and pray. And that does not mean I’ll just wait idly. The wait is an exercise on perspective. While going through my days, I have to keep mind that is eager for the good things that will come.
