Dear Humans,
It’s annoying to wait. In traffic. At the DMV. For the website to load. For the bluetooth to sync. In a society where we’re used to getting everything we want right away, waiting feels even worse.
But when I look back at my life, I see my best days were full of waiting. Waiting in the pastor’s study at the church for my wedding to start. Waiting in the delivery room on the day my children were born. Waiting in line at Space Mountain.
Because waiting means you’re doing something important (and probably with important people). And if we remember that waiting is a part of the good stuff that’s coming, it’s not too bad at all.
Sincerely,
Mr. Curt
