“I spent my whole life just killing time- waiting and waiting-waiting for something to change, even though I had absolutely no idea what that might be. I waited for the day to end. I waited in fear for the next day to begin. I waited and waited and waited and lied to myself that magically it would be all right.”

“Now that I look back, it seems to me that in all that deep darkness a miracle was preparing. So I am right to remember it as a blessed time, and myself as waiting in confidence, even if I had no idea what i was waiting for.”

“I would not sit waiting for some vague tomorrow, nor for something to happen. One could wait a lifetime, and find nothing at the end of the waiting. I would begin here, I would make something happen.”

“We wait... and wait... and so we spend our lives waiting. Waiting for the right moment, the right person, more money, more Love, more time, more approval... we even wait for the weather to change. We depend on everything but ourselves to take the leap. Stop waiting. Use your next breath to seize the day. It is Yours to Take.”

“It isn't that I didn't question why I spent all my days waiting”

“All the days of my appointed time will I wait till my change come.”
