Waiting. And not on tables.

This summer has been defined by waiting.

Waiting for news.

Waiting for opportunities.

I'm always an advocate of being an active participant in creating your destiny, but what do you do when everything you can do has been done and the outcome is out of your hands?

You wait.

I don't like feeling as though I am not living in this moment. I feel like I am missing so much RIGHT NOW because we are consumed with thinking about the future.

But, we still we wait. And time keeps ticking and life keeps happening. It seems like days drag now but when we look back, it will seem like moved so fast. We will realize that we missed little things happening and didn't appreciate other tiny moments.

So, until the other shoe drops, we pass time. And try our best to appreciate the moment we are in rather than focus too much on an undetermined future.

Easier said than done, isn't it?
