Daily Question, January 1

What am I waiting for?

  • Nina

    I am waiting for a well deserved promotion.

  • Lou Mu

    I am waiting for pay day so that I can put some shelves on the wall and finally get some photo frames up in the living room, making my house feel more like my home.

  • Vaibhavi Pant

    I don’t need to wait for anything or anyone. There is nothing like the “right time” or “right person” I am the right person and now is the right time. I promise to stop delaying and start working on myself

  • Grady Clampitt

    i am waiting to find someone that makes me happy

  • Antoinette

    Nothing

  • Malag

    The pandemic to end

    I am waiting for perfection! I never want to start something unless it is perfect. I don’t want to start a new habit if I can’t do it every day. I don’t want to start a bullet journal if it’s not the perfect, beautiful things I see online. I need to start doing things just because I want to, and not to post online or show off in some other performative way. I can do things just for me.

  • Brown Rose

    I am waiting for that push.

  • Cara G

    I am waiting for the peace I feel I’ve been chasing without success. 2021 was a challenging year for a lot of reasons and it left me wondering why.

  • MEG

    For me it is probably more hoping than actually “waiting” for …
    to learn and grow from the experiences of 2021 … to live more fully with faith, to adapt to the unknown and to the New …
    Happy 2022 to wonderful You!

    I think I unfortunately wait too often for other people to do something, when I would be better off finding ways to take charge and get things done on my own. I spend too much time waiting on others to change or do the right thing. While I do believe change is possible, in reality, you can only change yourself–your own behavior and reactions to others; instead of hoping for or trying to make them change.

    Just being

  • Journey

    I am waiting to find balance in my life and to find peace. I know this is attainable and if it is to be, it is up to me.

  • Hot Sauce

    I am waiting for insights to the questions I have been asking, as well as improvement on my running times.

  • Don Jones

    Given the size of the cosmos and my position within it – I am not capable of doing anything except wait. It is not about time. It is a quality, a way of being. I will wait joyfully.

    I am waiting for “what’s next”, in my work life. Lost my job, due to Covid. I am not ready to retire or be retired. I am searching for my next “big thing”!
    I am waiting for more like-minded folks to cross my path.
    Happy New Year to All here. Cheers to good health, happiness, peace, joy, abundance, gratefulness…..✨🌟🙏❤️

  • Melissa

    Waiting to see what direction to help with climate change and assisting others during these Covid changes. I know I won’t wait long. The universe signals and lets me know right away after the holidays where I can help.

    I love this question. Thank you. I am waiting for that connection in my heart that says, 'yes, this is what you are to do next." I want something that I can focus on wholeheartedly and that will engage my energy, give me a purpose beyond myself that helps me use my time well. And I'd love for it to be something creative. In the past I have had that energy and heart commitment to survival, healing, raising children and writing but now, at age 70, even though I have things that keep me busy and mu...

    I love this question. Thank you. I am waiting for that connection in my heart that says, ‘yes, this is what you are to do next.” I want something that I can focus on wholeheartedly and that will engage my energy, give me a purpose beyond myself that helps me use my time well. And I’d love for it to be something creative. In the past I have had that energy and heart commitment to survival, healing, raising children and writing but now, at age 70, even though I have things that keep me busy and much gratitude for my life, I feel underused. I do what I need to do but I feel like there’s more….something else that I am to embrace and be engaged with. Something that engages my heart, wholeheartedly. I wonder if perhaps that is now past? I hope not!

    I have been waiting to be matched with a refugee from Afghanistan, and it happened yesterday. She is 25, and a truly amazing young woman. I will be her mentor as she navigates her way (alone, without her family) in the US. I am grateful and happy to help her adjust to life in the US. She is a lovely, motivated and strong young woman with many goals in mind. It will be a pleasure to be her guide as she adapts to her new country.

    • Anna

      I truly appreciate what you are doing, dear Linda, my best wishes to you and this young woman.

    • Melissa

      In deep appreciation for helping this young woman and mentoring her. Sending good wishes her way and gratitude to you!

      • Linda

        Thank you. It is a joy to help someone in need. I look forward to all she will accomplish in her new country!

    • Holly in Ohio

      What joy!
      Linda, thank you so much for doing this! ❤

  • Marnie Jackson

    I am returning to school on Monday and I am anxious about the new COVID rules. I am waiting for the consequences of the decisions that have been made because we can never accurately guess how everything is going to play out.
