Waiting is the hardest part

Recently I heard someone say that he has been waiting for a contractor to finish his laundry room project. I could relate to the comment since I had waited six months for hot water.

Life is all about waiting.

Waiting to be old enough to make your own decisions.
Waiting for the test score, even though you know you failed.
Waiting for the answer to the question never asked.
Waiting for the night to end the day.
Waiting for her to say "Yes".
Waiting for him to say "What?"
Waiting for the light.
Waiting for the check to pay some of the bills.
Waiting for the invitation that never comes.
Waiting for the movie to end.
Waiting for the promotion, then realizing you already have it.
Waiting for the reply mail.
Waiting for the paint to dry.
Waiting for the morning to burn away the darkness.
Waiting for the children to play.
Waiting for the drugs to ease the pain.
Waiting for the clock to stop.

Life is but a holding pattern.

What are you waiting for?
