One could stand in line waiting for their turn, grumbling and constantly checking their watch, BUT if they choose to read a book while they wait, it's not so bad and time seems to go by faster. Nothing to say you can't enjoy your life now while waiting for your 'new life' to start. <BR/><BR/>...can't wait to see you again, though! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11986048.post-1142034256162806962006-03-10T18:44:00.000-05:002006-03-10T18:44:00.000-05:00I really enjoyed reading your thoughts on waiting....I really enjoyed reading your thoughts on waiting. I find that I'm so anxious to move on that I don't stay in the present. I think it's tied into being a fast leaver. I spend a lot time thinking about the future, even if it's just 10 minutes into the future. I do need to take the time and enjoy the now or I'm never fully living life. Granted, I'm not waiting on a life changing decision, but Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11986048.post-1141933496391050762006-03-09T14:44:00.000-05:002006-03-09T14:44:00.000-05:00Well, gosh.

Sorry for giving you grief on a schedule to move your things to Canada! :) I do hope you are able to come back across the sea as soon as God feels that it is right. As with all events/tragedies and difficulties that happen in life, it is almost impossible to know what God has up his sleve at the time.

I guess where I have a problem is putting God in charge of human bureaucratic systems like adoption or immigration. Now I think the reason I unconsciously do this is because these entities are so abstract for me- they actually seem to have "god-like" Danifestohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01888720794784878704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11986048.post-1141835021443285232006-03-08T11:23:00.000-05:002006-03-08T11:23:00.000-05:00Dan, I assume you are refering to our adoption sit...Dan, I assume you are refering to our adoption situation in your blog. Thank you for sharing the way you have dealt with the pain of "waiting." It's helps me gain a better perspective.
