They say that the hardest of all the works that befalls on man is no other that to wait.
Waiting for something,
Waiting for someone
or waiting for what destiny
or the twist and turns of fate
might give.
Waiting for fruits of labor,
Waiting for the spring to come forth
for the rebirth of the earth
after a harsh and cold winter
and waiting for the emergence
of the mayfly or June beetle
after their subterranean sleep in the ground
to take sight of the light
and to lay their new eggs for new life
to continue their life cycle
Waiting anxiously for the news of the battle
by those left by the valiant warriors
who prayed for their safe return home
Waiting for the result of the examination
a student undertook that would give tittle to him
on his would-be career and endeavor
Waiting eagerly for Christ's second coming
to establish anew Jerusalem on earth,
the Kingdom that would endure forever
where our tears and fears would be wiped
and many other things under the dome of heaven
and beyond the heavens above
that are worth waiting
or just an object of skepticism.
We humans became so impatient and our eagerness and appreciation for the things we kept on waiting, when they are already at hand seemed to be gone. Our interest vanished. We become now so immersed with ourselves and our focus has been diverted to what would only benefit ourself. We now carve for physical/material things which just satisfy our senses but emptied our hearts and turned to lose our prudence and emphaty for others.
But when things came that obstruct us and became an impediment for us, we tend to become hot-tempered and begin to say blasphemous things which in fact and in truth, we do not have right. The more we would become rebellious then and sometimes, due to our nonsense obsession, we would plunge ourselves to the river of destruction or wish to take our very own life (as a result of frustrations and severe depression) whi its inception, no one is allowed to. But just a little wisdom and we would turn our waiting nightmare into something righteous and just and for our own benefit and the benefit and the welfare of the people around us. Just by reading the holy Bible that says: "That everything works for the good of those who love God. And I think this works for everyone, Believers and unbelievers. There's a reason for everything even in waitng. It is in waiting that we have the time exclusively for ourselves and we would rather use it to self-reflect and meditate or just do the things we the most which are really necessary to be accomplished. It is when we do something good in our waiting hours that it will come to our knowledge that we didn't wait at all and we will tend to have to end the day having a great sense of fulfillment having utilized our time and what we are capable of doing to its optimum. That we have no regret for the things unaccomplished and a sense of guilt for being idle but instead, we rather thank God for the day He has given us. And sooner or later, your work would surely yield fruits at the time you do not expect and rewards which are great, a reward you never had imagined.
