Sometimes It's Worth The Wait...

While I do agree with you that there are times that it is worth the wait, there are also times that the wait that we have to go through is something that is very painful to us. For example, I had my first pregnancy (miscarriage) when I was nineteen years old. I was so very excited about that child and then when I lost him, I was crushed. I had to go through another three years of my life wondering about the what ifs and such. Yes, I wouldn't trade Kathryn for the world, but I wish that I had her brother as well.

Yeah LovingMyBabies, there would be something worth to wait in our daily life. If we have some things to get busy with time would pass fast unconsciously. Let say we must be patient to wait for months to see a new born baby. We need to be patient to wait for our loved one to be back. We have to wait for the fruit tree to grow, bloom, bear fruit, ripe, etc. We would be in great pleasure to see the fruitful harvest we have been waiting for Happy posting

As the saying goes...patience is a virtue. And I think the meaning of this has been lost to many people, specially the young ones. There's always the sense of being the center of the universe, and that if they want something, they want it right away, right now. When in fact, the wait itself makes something that we strive for even worth it.

Like some would say, “Patience is a virtue” don’t rush on things most especially in making decisions because you never know if you will regret it in the end. Waiting is somehow putting up a time in deciding on some thoughts in life, and it will help you think more on its positive and negative outcome.

yes, this is very nice analysis. If we bake a cake, if we won't wait for the right timing, otherwise, our cake will be half cooked and with over the time, it will be burned. but with the right timing, our cake, will just be right for dessert. As compared to our decision making, then, having a right decision on the right time, then it will surely make a the right one.

waiting is bored job and some person really hated if need to wait, some people didnt have patience enough to wait even to wait for the important things. Even this will chance their life, may be if they have patience enough to wait they will got great chance for their life. It's reality world which is everyone need everything with very fast and instant like fastfood, ordered and one minutes the food is in our table with our menu that we ordered.

I admit sometimes u feel u r doing nothing but wait, and it is a wast of time, u feel anxious because ur dream is still so far away from and all u can do is just wait. but I believe as long as u do something to prepare bricks for the dream,though it seems that u didn't make a step at all, but oneday, the success of the dream will surprise u. I believe!

THe wait certainly is worthwhile. Hard but worth it. Have to keep busy and find other things to think about. Not always easy.

You are bang on target! Patience is a virtue which is fast getting lost. We want everything in an instant. The flashy car, the white collar job, a great girlfriend and things of that sort. It's about time we realized that the wait adds to the value of the prize.

That's true! But sometimes there are just things that we are so anxious about that we would really want to know about it or get hold of it right away. And the waiting sometimes is killing me! But, of course, it doesn't have to be always on my terms.....

It's so true. You cherish those things for which you have to wait and struggle more, because those are not guaranteed and you know what it's like without them... and you know how much you did to get them. It was the same with me with love. Everyone had boyfriends around me at 13-14, yet no proper guy was interested in me until I was 22, more close to 23. It was hard, and I felt so miserable... but it's been worth the wait. I've been together with my fiancé for almost 9 months now, and... it's better, because this way I can truly appreciate someone next to me and holding me in his arms... yset other people do all that drama and make the life of their "loved one" miserable, because they don't know what it's like to lose someone or have no one to love, until their beloved gets fed up and throws them out... at least I know better know, to appreciate true love.

I agree with you. I was impatient when I was young hoping to meet that special person and get married, have kids, etc... It just didn't happen right away when I thought it would or should have. So I guess it took a while and patience for me to meet my husband. Totally worth the wait though : )

Yes some things are worth waiting for. I have gone to that same experience and it is one of the greatest feeling that still exists in this world. Once you get hold of your dream, you should never let it go and you should guard it with your soul all the way through. God is good all the time.

Yes that is true. We have to be patient and wait. And it's worth the waiting often times. When we always hurry something goes wrong. Patience has its rewards in time.

I do get impatient with the things I want but don't really need at the moment because of anxiety. I'm too happy in having the money that I'm able to buy it right away but due to being impatient, I buy it when they can become cheap if I wait. Sometimes, I need the money for something more important than the thing I don't really need at the moment.

Being an Aries I have no patience with much stuff. Like right now I want a car, I want to move, I want a new computer, and I don't want to wait. I hate the idea that I have to save up when I only get paid once a month. It's just so hard to do. All I have to say is, sometimes it's not worth the wait so I'd rather find out rather quickly, lol!

i could feel your discussion with my emotional disposition to work and career. i would like to wait for the right time, but the system in which we operate is designed to make anything in the least of time we possibly can. efficiency is the rule of thumb in this capitalistic society that we have. unless we do away with the system, yeah, it is always worth to wait. but hey wait, how long are we going to wait?

Yeah it is good to be patient and wait for things. At the end we are usually happy to have waited for what we want or the results we are looking for. Has something happened for you that you are happy about?

I do agree to a point I suppose... Getting there is half the fun - figuratively. However now and again waiting seem to make some things an anti-climaz

Yes you are right, we should have patients, in waiting for thing, I have put in for and apartment, through housing, and I haven't heard anything, from them yet the lady told me, it would be 60 days, before I heard anything, my time still isn't up yet, well to, I applied for, this other apartment, that has it's own section 8, and the lady in the rental office, told me I will get a letter, from them in 2 weeks telling me what number I will be on their waiting list, and if I have interview, with them what I am to bring with me, I will wait this out because, I really want to move out of my, niece house this year.
