Waiting

Waiting can be a tortuous moment in life

Contradicting the virtue of patience in every instance

The challenge for us humans is “waiting patiently”

How we behave while waiting is important

And says a lot about us and who we are

Waiting for love is a common “wait” that many of us

Know and understand very well

However we often wait for an infinite number of things

Infinite in the sense that we just can’t count them

Waiting often eats and rips at the soul

This behavior must be contained

For there are purposes and many good purposes

With and for waiting

Patience comes to mind, as the chief virtue

Patience with life

Many things don’t come right away

And many eventually come

Some of us wait a lifetime for things to come

It is one of life’s most daring and difficult assignments

To wait patiently
