Lady in Waiting

I've decided that I have to wait for the things that I really want. Wait.  That word has taken on a whole new meaing for me and I wait...on another level.  What am I waiting for?

Not sure.  I am waiting to calm down and not be so appalled by what I see going on in the world today. The corruption and dishonesty.  A culture where people are more determined to hate than to love.  A world where people are so much more willing to embrace a lie rather than the truth.  The frightening part about this is that people can tell the difference between a truth and a lie...they would rather believe the lie if they think it's beneficial.

I am waiting, not to care about it.  Or to realize that I can care about it but not do anything about it.  I am waiting for God to come down and say,  "Okay, you guys...this thing that I created...Life...I was just kidding. "It's really an awesome and pleasant experience and you guys get to go to paradise...no holds barred.".  God is going to do that one day...just probably not today.

I am waiting to be understood.  I am waiting to understand.  I am waiting to get this unconditional love thing perfectly correct...How do you do that again?  I am waiting for people to say...Okay...I was wrong.  Let me get this right.  I am waiting for human beings to behave as intelligent and civilized as they claim to be and stop trying to compete with God.  I plead no contest.  I am waiting to be happy.  I am waiting to create.  I am waiting to be financially sound.  I am waiting to be the person that God would have me to be.  I am waiting.

We are all waiting.  Except many of us don't know it.  I know because everytime I slam into a proverbial brickwall in my life, I have to wait.  Sometimes I have to wander until I find the gate... the opening and sometimes I wait until the gate...the opening miraculously appears.  I am waiting.  I don't want to wait.  But, somehow, I know that sometimes that is what is necessary for me to do. Wait.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!
