The Waiting
The waiting. Sometimes that has a dreaded sound to it. The waiting. It even sounds like a long drawn out pause where you feel stuck, unable to make any forward progress. Have you ever noticed how impatient we have gotten? Amazon prime gives us packages delivered to our doorstep in a day. In fact, I recently ordered something from a smaller company, and I had to wait five whole days to get it. You heard me, FIVE days. Outrageous! But wait, there was a time when that did not bother me at all, and I would just go about my business and be delighted when it arrived. Or what about photos? Back in the day we had to get pictures developed on film. You would wait days to see that most of your photos were terrible. This one is blurry. That one my eyes are closed. That one has half a finger over the camera lens. Now, everything is instant on our phones and some of us even filter as we take the picture to ensure we get exactly what we want. But that is a whole different story...
