Wait

Waiting is beautiful. It brings us back to the present moment. It gives us a chance to breath and to understand what is going on around. Then why do we still get impatient sometimes?

If you have been taught to achieve and to strive over adversities, very likely, you constantly seek for something to do, to keep moving forward. However, life tends to throw us some setbacks, and some down turns, just to lower our egos, and to teach us about humanity.

Many times, I have questioned how to make my work more efficient, how to get things done faster, and why other people just seems to move so slowly. Yet, I forget that everyone has their own pace, if we want to go far, we need to go together, which means, sometimes, I just need to slow down or stop to wait for our partners. To be precise, I am not slowing myself down but walking toward a common goal, a together destination. Otherwise, what is the point of bringing other people with me on that journey?

So, with that mindset, should we find partners who walk the same pace with us, or should we choose them because of who they are and of where they are heading to? Perhaps, we ought to choose people who will wait for us, because, there are going to be moments that we are tired, and cannot move as fast as we expect. Waiting for each other, therefore, becomes more meaningful.

I hope you are still waiting. To wait, is to create a journey ❤
