...But how much of it? This is one of the saying that had made such a mark on me, not only because of what it means but also how it applies to me. I have always been an impatient soul, I never liked waiting, and I don't think anyone did. For me, things that needs waiting needs to just be left alone; I always treated time as gold, nothing is worth the waste. Most of the things I have, I had the time I wanted them; not sooner, not later. If there were things that I could wait for, it would be birthdays, i cannot rush them, they only come at a very specific time of the year. That's the deal of my impatience, I can wait as long as i know when it will be done, I can wait for years; as long as I know when it will happen, precisely.
In the past years of my life, there were just things that I couldn't have controlled even with everything that i have. They are the ones bound by time, things that i need to wait for so I can savor them later. I never knew it was possible, once I leave something behind, I never look back. Little did I know that if it is for you, it is for you, no matter how you left it behind, it will always be yours, following you around until it meets your eyes again.
Sometimes, you think you are waiting, but for the most part, it's you they are waiting for. It might be perplexing but it can't be anymore true. You may think that it is you that needs to wait to have something. If you think hard enough, things may not be in your hands because you are not yet ready for it, thus, they wait for you and you don't even know a thing about it.
I used to focus on not waiting because i think time is wasted. Now I learned that you may have to look at things twice and wait for a little longer so you may see if it is worth it, or if there is really a waste. The more we haste, the more we waste.
