Simple Act of Waiting:
Of all the hardships a person had to face, none was more punishing than the simple act of waiting.


-Khaled Hosseini,  A Thousand Splendid Suns 
Tibet
Often the act of waiting is anything but simple.

Many people hate to wait because they are waiting to do something,

get something, or go somewhere.

Waiting doesn’t seem like an act, but the lack of action;  however,

the decision to be patient and willing to wait is an act of courage and perseverance.

The Patience of Ordinary Things

by Pat Schneider

… I’ve been thinking about the patience

Of ordinary things, how clothes

Wait respectfully in closets

And soap dries quietly in the dish,

And towels drink the wet

From the skin of the back.

And the lovely repetition of stairs.
