Waiting

Are you good at waiting??  I'm not.   But its something we all have to do.  Wait for a cashier. Wait at the bank. Wait in traffic. Wait for the doc.  I know people estimate and calculate what percentage we spend sleeping, but what about waiting???  Maybe they don't calculate it because we'd be shocked at the number?

Waiting was also a photo topic. And even though it was close to 110F, this guy was waiting on a bus.  

They say that time is our most important commodity, the one thing we can't buy or get back. So use your time wisely. Spend time doing things that make you happy.  We all have those things we don't like to do, like work, but its the attitude of joy that makes even lousy tasks enjoyable!

So when you find yourself waiting,  see if there's something else to do to fill the time.  Personally, except for waiting in traffic, I grab my phone, open up my Kindle app and immerse myself in someone else's story.  If my nephew is along, we use the time to relate stories.  He loves to hear stories about his Nanny, my sister,  when we were kids.  

Time. Use it wisely.
