Time and desires: you’ve brought up two concepts that can be fluid, elusive, frustrating. Concepts I’ve meditated on a great deal, and I’m sure will do that a great deal more. There have been times that I wish would slow down, and times I’ve wished would speed up.
I’ve spent so much time meditating on trying to enjoy the process, whether slow or fast. Time is a blessing and it’s good to see the joy in the journey, no matter the distance. So good to see you, Gus. ♡
Yes, Ma’am, there is and we should. However, I’m terrible at…umm, waiting. And I kinda like instant gratification, so this has always been a hard lesson. Happy Thanksgiving, Debbie! Hope you and Domer enjoy the weekend.
It would indeed, however, I think there is something to be said for the wait…learning what it is we truly desire, as what we think we desire is not often what we truly need and until we understand what we truly need, what we desire will not satisfy.

Wow, not sure where that came from. Honourable Sorry! LOL Thank Goodness it’s my friday today!
Ah ha! Yes, exactly. Tongue and cheek with this today and I love how everyone has called me out. Some smart ones out there, which I adore.
Waiting on His plan is often such a struggle. In the end, it’s how it was supposed to be.
Thank you for reaffirming what my faith teaches me. My Friday, as well. Yay!
We humans get in the way of things, don’t we? Audrey, you always write something that makes me stop and think, often a passage that grants me a better day or less biased outlook, and for this, I thank you. I tend to get too settled into my own view, you shake it up.
I think we do get in the way of a nature progression or God’s plan for us, wanting to in the end, get what we feel we need. It’s hard. The wait. I’m thankful my poetry gives you pause to consider. You are a thoughtful one, my friend. Shaking up is what I often need. I have to remind myself! 🙂

Not sure how the pumpkins might feel. Doubt they are in any more of a hurry than the turkeys!

My guess is pumpkins and turkeys could both use a little excitement, don’t you?

You’ve resisted the urge to teach me a lesson, unlike the others or you were on to me the entire time. Smiles. Thanks, John.

Hmm. There’s something to be said for slowing down and enjoying the trip, though, right?! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Audrey!

Thanks, Audrey. I know waiting is hard. Perhaps that’s something that comes easier the older we get?? (or maybe not, ha!!)
