Waiting

Waiting is something everyone has to do at various points in life. I know that I don't enjoy waiting at all. I know it's character-building and builds patience and perseverance, but it's HARD. And I'm learning that I can wait badly - stomping around, being grouchy, getting impatient, or choose to wait well.

Waiting well - that's been my goal for this summer and maybe into the fall.

    I agree with Jacque. Good things do come to those that wait. I can think of a lot of other things I would rather do than wait but I sure do lot's of waiting.

    Hugs,
    Barb
