My patience is being throughly tested. Tick tock, tick tock goes the clock on the wall next to me in my office, mocking me and my stupid impatience. I am waiting on several things and I admit it is getting discouraging. The slow moments throughout my week does not help this.
Waiting enables doubts to come and I pray/mediate daily to help bolster my faith that everything will turn out in the end. It always does, yet I fret. No one likes to wait, least of all me. It's that need for instant gratification that I fight. Like the illustrious band Queen sings: "I want it all and I want it now." Yep, I want it all and now! Not later...
So I need to breathe and shut down my inner brat because it's driving me nuts. I have done the waiting game before and I remember the real fulfillment of being patient and waiting. I will remind myself to be in the moment now because I do not want to miss the blessings I have in this moment.
I know I will look back on this day and realize that in my moment of waiting I had it good. It is peaceful and calm and the tick tock of the clock soothes me instead of mocking me. It is reminding me that everything will come in time. I just have to have faith and wait. I just have to let go and see what happens.
