of time and of waiting
my friend and i have this theory. its about time and waiting. basically it goes like this: all your life, you spend almost every minute of it waiting for someone, something. you wait to be conceived, you wait to be born, you wait to grow up, you wait to fall sick, you wait for the school bus to go to school, you wait to get results, you wait to buy food, you wait to try clothes, you wait for the love of ur life, you wait to get the job of your dreams, you wait for transport (think taxi queues at night when u're feet hurt like hell and all u wan to do is to go home), you wait for the weekend, you wait for your kids to grow up, you wait for retirement, you wait to die. did i forget to mention you also have to wait and queue to the toilet?
wait wait wait.
wait wait.
wait.
so what are u waiting for?
i'm not sure wat else i'm waiting for either. Just tat i'm now so restless and out of sorts and moody and tired. yet another big day at pertapis coming up tomorrow though. and sincere apologies to my team because right now i'm simply not in the mood to worry abt pertapis. nor the piles of work i've been conveniently dumped with. so i guess there'll be more waiting, and waiting, and waiting. waiting for class to start, waiting for thurs to come, waiting for work to end, waiting to heal, waiting for the day i won't cry when i think of us, waiting for a new job opportunity, waiting for the weekend to come, waiting for payday...the list doesn't seem to end does it?
but i think wats impt is not tat we always have to wait. but wat are those things tat are actually worth our time waiting for? for one, i don't mind waiting for you. u might think this is pressurising, but please don't think of it so. cos this is wat i am doing willingly on my part. wats impt is tat i'm waiting for you to be finally ok, and be finally rid of whatever you are unsure of, so that u can move forward and find your own happiness. Cos for someone as special as you are, you deserve your slice of happiness. Til that day comes, i won't be able to stop worrying or thinking about you.
