Think back to all those things that you've had to wait for. Imagine if you had given up- you may never have experienced that desire being fulfilled!
Searching/waiting is an important part of reaching your ultimate goal. While the treasure at the end of the course is what you have fixed your eyes on, it is not nearly as enjoyable if it is reached within the first moments of the search commencing. The period of anticipation only makes the enthusiasm grow, ultimately making that end satisfaction that much better.
Some give up, but some persist... and those are the ones that reach their goal- those are the ones that ones who's patience is rewarded.
(but to some of you, I'm afraid to report that there are exceptions- somethings are just never meant to be)
Waitin' On A Woman - Brad Paisley
Sittin' on a bench at West Town Mall
He sat down in his overalls and asked me
You waitin' on a woman
I nodded yeah and said how 'bout you
He said son since nineteen fifty-two I've been
Waitin' on a woman
When I picked her up for our first date
I told her I'd be there at eight
And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty
She said I'm sorry that I took so long
Didn't like a thing that I tried on
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
Yeah she'll take her time but I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
He said the wedding took a year to plan
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
Waitin' on a woman
And then he nudged my arm like old men do
And said, I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it
Waitin' on a woman
And I don't guess we've been anywhere
She hasn't made us late I swear
Sometimes she does it just 'cause she can do it
Boy it's just a fact of life
It'll be the same with your young wife
Might as well go on and get used to it
She'll take her time 'cause you don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
I've read somewhere statistics show
The man's always the first to go
And that makes sense 'cause I know she won't be ready
So when it finally comes my time
And I get to the other side
I'll find myself a bench, if they've got any
I hope she takes her time, 'cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
Honey, take your time, cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
~Always Late, but worth the Wait~

Gah! I hate sitting on the anticipation right now...but I know it's coming...and you're right, it is making it that much more enjoyable and satisfying.
Congrats to you.
Hey, cant blame those who know.
I agree. I think waiting is a good thing. If you get everything you wanted, who knows what you would end up with. If you have to wait for it, at some point youll give up, if it aint truly what you want. Glad he knew what he truly wanted
Muffin, youll always be waiting, you and aaron can just grab a bench together! lol
Aaron and I'll have a blast- and don't forget that Phil is joining us too!
Krysta, it took me five minutes to decipher what you wrote. But I finally got it. Phew.
And yes, I like to think that I'm worth the wait, but sometimes I feel like I spend more time waiting for Vince. For heaven's sake. He takes hours to get ready!
