speaking of waiting...
so, on doing some various searching and reading on the phenomenon of waiting and not living in the now i came across a good article. the irony is that it was on some weight loss site, which is not where my waiting is coming from, but i just wrote a big comment in the last post about how it is still a part of it.
anyway, the article is called "Weighing Some Tough Options, Turing Someday into Today"
here's a snippet:
It’s time for some cold, hard facts:
- You’re not going to be able to read every book that you want
- You’ll never have time to watch all of your favorite shows
- The house will never be clean enough
- There will always be another errand to run
- The grass will continue to grow
- Everything you buy will need to be dusted, repaired, maintained or disposed of in some way
This is not a critique of any lack of organizational skills on your part, or a reason to give up altogether. Rather, it’s a statement of freedom.When you know that life will still be waiting for you tomorrow—no matter what—it gives you the freedom to make today count as much as possible. "Someday" is right now. Anytime. And that can be exciting, if you let it.
Seems somehow appropriate doesn't it?
