Waiting

I'm sitting at starbucks (thats right I have caved) sipping on my light sugary coffee drink, waiting for my friends. Waiting seems to be a trend in my life. I feel like i have been waiting to really start my life since I was a kid. I recall a time in the 4th grade when I was hoping to skip ahead to high school to start really living. While in high school I waited for college to start my life. Granted I have enjoyed my life and have had many
experinces and great memories. But I still find myself waiting. I want to stop waiting, stop pushing stuff off until tomorrow, and start living!

It's like the old saying "We're always wishing our lives away"...hahahaha!

I have the same bad habit. I am always thinking ahead, planning for the future, and waiting for the next big moment. I wonder what I miss by refusing to "live in the now"...

I'm always waiting too...but what would you be doing if you were "living your life" :)

Glad to see that I am not the only one who feels this way.

I'm not sure what I would be doing. Lately I have been thinking about my future in terms of mariage and babies. That seems to be the next "big thing." I'm so far that though...some days it makes me sad and other days I'm so happy and thankful that I'm not there yet.

I just plan of doing all the things I want to do- or even have to do. Without putting it off to the very last min.

I can definitely relate, it's sort of that stage in your life where you feel like you should be settled and on your path, but you're still making your way.

I hear you! The most frustrating thing about waiting is when you're waiting for something that you don't really have any control over. I mean, you can try not to wait, but somewhere in that back of your mind, you know that you still are.

I used to feel like that all the time! Until something in my life happened that made me realize how incredibly short life is. It is so important to live life in the now, suck everything up before it is too late. And while this is great advice, sometimes it is so hard to follow.

I don't comment enough on your blog Dani but every time I read it, I always think how thoughtful and interesting it is!
