In life, it would seem that we are constantly waiting for things that we want to happen. Even when we were still children, we’d patiently wait for some treats. We tirelessly wait for our time to go outside and play. Waiting during those times seems to be so simple and innocent. However, when we became adults, we cannot always patiently wait. Life demands a lot from us, and sometimes, waiting is never an option. We want to get things in an instant, if not, as soon as possible. To wait at today’s standards seems so ancient and primitive. We want things to happen as early as possible, and we don’t like waiting for too long for results anymore.
The longer we wait for something good to happen could really be troublesome, but we must learn the art of waiting. We cannot deny the fact that we want things to go to our advantage, but that is not always the case. Learning the art of waiting could actually make us a better person. We also become more considerate and more understanding on the possibility that everything will not always go to our preferences.
As they say, there is indeed a time for everything. No matter how fast-paced our world is, we must become patient. Without learning the art of waiting, we are more exposed to possibilities that we could eventually lose our interests, and even experience frustrations, and disappointments. These negative emotions could then bring the worst out of us, simply because we could not wait.
The art of waiting gives us a lot of avenues to improve ourselves as a person. To this world that changes so fast, it is a blessing to have someone who could patiently wait. If you think that everything you do seems to be not doing you anything good; just wait. As long as you are doing what is right, and as long as you do your work passionately, everything will pay off soon. No success is built overnight. Through perseverance and patience, you will eventually harvest what has been planted.
