"Blessings"
So,I was visited by some great friends who happened into my life many years ago now and somehow we have maintained contact. One of them is great with child-well not as great as my wife. It made me think of the season of waiting we're in and how we see waiting through some story book lens rather than maybe as intended. somehow I think waiting should be this island experience where all is bliss and some eternal waiter is about to bring me the gift of my life so I just sit here and sip my fine drink in active expectation. It seems that mary was in a very different situation as a pregnant woman 25 days from her due date. My wife was all done with glowing and on to waiting by speaking that baby right outta there. She walked around constantly and talked constantly about the "fact" that the time had come - this baby needs to come out!! I think I noticed a bigger more generous view of journey toward the good. What does waiting meen for you???

I suppose waiting can be a way of life, and a mindset. Waiting for the next big thing to happen, waiting for change, "Waiting for Godot" and just keeping busy while he never shows up. I hate waiting, but I spend way too much time living in that state.
