Experiencing the Wait
I often think about how much time we spend waiting vs experiencing. Tell me about your experience with the wait. Any genre, any style. Winner receives adoration and praise. Between 15-100 words.
the wait
For me waiting has always been associated with unpleasantness. Interminable waits in doctor's offices or hospital waiting rooms where life becomes frozen except for the anxious working of the mind fighting with itself to stay strong and positive while anticipating inevitable disappointment. This waiting is torture for the mind and spirit, life stops completely with no relief until my name is called. But that is only a brief respite, I'm taken to another room and made to wait again. After it seems like it will never happen the Doctor finally appears and apologizes for "the wait", I say "no problem."
