I guess it’s just my anxiety. 1 Reply Pollyanna Gladwell11 months agoPollyanna GladwellI am waiting to think, act and feel as old as the calendar says I am. It’s going to be a l-o-n-g wait! Carpe diem! 6 Reply Mica11 months agoMicaOh, Polyanna, but itsn’t it also nice to feel younger? hugs – 1 Reply Pollyanna Gladwell11 months agoPollyanna GladwellIt sure is, Mica… use it or lose it! Thank you. xx 2 Reply Kahea11 months agoKaheaGreat question…. what am i waiting for? 1 Reply Katrina11 months agoKatrinaI am waiting to have my family in my home – to feed them, hug them, laugh with them, hear the grandchildren play games and laugh with each other, to hear stories of my families plans and unplans, and revised plans, and what they are waiting on, and to be creative with them. How long, O Lord? 6 Reply Rachel11 months agoRachelI don’t know. It is like I can’t see the path before me to know where to place my feet so I am still. There are changes I need to make in my life and I am uncertain of the how most likely because I want transformation and the truth is change is the cumulative impact of one small action at a time. Sigh. 3 Reply Craig11 months agoCraigI try not to wait, since awaiting creates in me a palpable sense of lack and diverts me from the wonder of right now. Here is a poem, “Happy About” I wrote that attempts to clarify this.

Here is a poem, “Happy About” I wrote that attempts to clarify this. (Click “Read More” to see it in a more graphic-friendly form)… Happy About Too often I am happy about; Happy about my relationships, Happy about my successes, Happy about things that go my way. But I discard every about, for each is a self-created formula for discontent. Each about is a choice that constrains my happiness. Each about is a desire empowered to inhibit my peace. Each about is a stumbling block I place on my own path. Each about is a barrier to my true Self. I am happy about nothing. I am simply happy. I am free.

And I want to gently pat the belly of his pregnant momma, my daughter, and say hello to the little one growing there. 4 Reply Eddie11 months agoEddieI’m trying to adopt the philosophy that I will get to things in time. I tend not to wait as much this way. I want to paint large paintings again – it is hard to get to my studio so I paint small at home. In time I’ll paint larger – at home or in the studio – in time. But now I’m waiting for 11:40 so I can go to the chiropractor 🙂 5 Reply Michele11 months agoMicheleI am waiting to hear from someone I loved so much. 3 Reply devy11 months agodevyI am waiting for a world where kindness, gratitude and love exists: where selfishness, wars, poverty are eliminated.

And for now, I am waiting for my next patient to come by. Looking forward to seeing what changes have occurred since our last visit together. 1 Reply Christina2 years agoChristinaI wait a lot. I’m a very early riser, am always early for appointments, etc. I send a lot of time waiting for the rest of the world to be available. Also, I am waiting for my trip to Paris at the end of September! 2 Reply Doreen Nixon2 years agoDoreen NixonI am waiting for the weather outside to get a little warmer so I can get out and restock my fridge and to buy kitty litter and bird seed for the pretties outside who have to brave the extreme cold each day. 2 Reply Ed2 years agoEdI am waiting for my mood to change so I can focus and complete two large creative projects I want to finish by June. Meanwhile, I’m cleaning the office, preparing my tax accounts, putting away tools and looking for stuff to give away or throw away, making space in my world and soul. 5 Reply Kevin11 months agoKevinHello Ed, I just cleaned out my home office closet last week. Need anything? Ha! 1 Reply 2 years agolately I have often listened to wise people who talk about the future, here where I live, and in Western countries in general, and often prophesy what the unfortunate prophetess Cassandra dared to say about the ncient city of Troy, a very bad vision.

Or maybe for the perfect thing to come to me or to “know” the right move. Or, really, all of those. I am done waiting. 5 Reply « Previous 1 2 3 Next » My Private Gratitude Journal Write an entry in your private gratefulness journal Get Started This site is brought to you by A Network for Grateful Living, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
