Waiting ...




Waiting ... waiting ... and waiting. It takes a lot of patience and hope to wait. In life we wait for many things. It could be exam results, fulfillment of a dream, arrival of someone or just simply waiting for a wish and hope to come true. It's boring, its irritating, it's terrible, it's awful to wait for whatever it is. People are impatient creatures but if tested they last and win to be the most patient. Everything happens for a reason. To wait for things to happen or arrive at the right times takes sometime.




To wait is to hope. To hope is not to lose patience. To be bored is normal. To cry out loud is acceptable. But to lose hope is a no-no. Anything worth trying is worth waiting for. Life in general takes a lot of waiting. Determination and great discipline that will be developed along the process of this waiting period is a great help in the journey of life.



For so many years now, I'd been waiting for so many things. When I was younger I was always ask to wait. Waiting for my

mother to arrive, waiting for the food to be served, waiting for the older people to decide on a certain matter. Every child has a great patience in this waiting period. When we were young there is not much of an agitation in the waiting period. But as I grow, I still waited for things that matters and may affect my life. Examination results were the most awful thing to wait for at that time. The feeling is so terrible because the result or outcome may decide where the future will be nurture further. As the days become closer to the revelation or unveiling of the truth, my heart throbs nervously and crazily.


Now that I've grown in all aspects of life I am still waiting for so many things. I have gained knowledge and became strong in facing life so waiting most of the time is a 'mess up'. People at this stage usually cannot wait anymore. People become impatient and bored. Because of impatient attitude I happen to always mess up the waiting period. It's either I assume things to happen or predict the outcome. Waiting irritates me ...

But I can't do anything. I need to learn from my mistakes. Mistakes that I got very bad consequences. I need to grow. I became older but I didn't mature. It's better when I was younger because I have patience for waiting things to come and happen. But now its the other way around. I know everything happens for a reason.



I must learn to patiently wait. Waiting would mean I must slow down a little bit. I must rest from time to time. Looking around would be great to divert my attention and enjoy life as it comes every minute of the day. Everything has its time. If things are really meant to be mine then it will be. I must wait ... wait ... wait ... and wait. I know it will come ... very soon.

Starting A Life In The Middle of a Life




Life is an exciting existence of a human being on Earth. From childhood to adolescence life is a routine schedule. There is a pattern being followed or a rule set by the older people like our parents. When our parents are gone to work for our future, they entrust us to the people we call teachers. These teachers guide us and nurture our knowledge of the world to come in the future. Our response to their teaching depends on our behavior and willingness to grow. After school, parents play a great role for us to value what we have learned the whole day when they are busy.


As our existence goes on, we pass through different stages of education. Our education usually starts with kindergarten, primary/elementary, middle school (for other countries) high school and college/university. Through these years we are molded, trained and guided of who we want to become in the future. There are bright future for good students and there are adventurous future for risky students. Basically we design our life. It is us who makes it.
As we grow older and graduate from school we venture in different kinds of life or way of living। This stage is memorable to most of us because this stage after graduation is the period where we search for jobs and start planning to be stable in life. People get married and begin the life they have prepared for so many years. In this stage we make mistakes but we do our best to solve the mistakes maturely though some are not successful in doing so.


In my opinion there is no certain age for a person to call its life already in the middle. You will feel it you are there because partly you have accomplished what you have ever wanted and still looking for more but still clueless of reality. It is like you know that you have prepared something for the place you want to go but you don't know where. This is the middle life.


The middle life for singles is the life where their career is soaring so high but their love life is zero। A time where everything is not balanced even how hard you try to organize it. Its like you are lost in the wilderness of nowhere. There are people who know how to get out of this place by finding love from their families. Some are stuck in the comfort of their friends. Most are married to their work.


It's really difficult to say how to get out of these emptiness. Its a fact that all of us pass a middle life where most of life us are comforted by love ones especially our families. If you have one, you are in good condition. If you've got friends, you're still lucky because in friendship there is love. But if none, it's not too late yet to look for one.
