I am one of the many who can't wait for the holidays. But I realized, when it's happening already, I forgot a few things. Now, as a planner by profession, I was actually processing my excellence. Okay, so this ain't the first time I felt unprepared for an occasion. I just might come up with a long list of "should've have's" for one event to another. As I was welcoming the year 2012, I had to admit I was contemplating and anticipating too much in the past that I forgot to be in that "moment" on most occasions.
There is a time for waiting.
I am a woman of action. I am not a big fan of press releasing the things I've done and the things I intend to do. And quite frankly, I think that's a waste of time. Time is valuable for me and so I hate to wait. The people I wait for more than 5 minutes before I get irate are either people I'm trying to impress or very important to me. My 13 years of marriage to a very loving and patient man helps a lot in teaching me to wait; to wait patiently if I might add. And it just dawned on me that waiting is not that bad at all.
There is a time for doing.
Right now, I'm faced with a struggle. Every part of me wants to act. But something in me tells me that what I need to do right now is to do nothing. It's kind of weird and ironic. Doing nothing is not my kind of thing. But for now, I surrender to that.
