Waiting

Waiting is that conscious period of time before an expected event. Almost everything we do, except a few moments of terror, can be classified as waiting. The word seems paltry in comparison to impact it has on life.

Here I sit at the computer waiting for the time to pass before our departure to Samoa while waiting for the right words to express my thoughts on waiting. Yet within this wait are hundreds of other waits just waiting to happen. If waiting wasn't so important, it could drive you crazy, or maybe it already has.

So I will make this incoherent blog entry short as you wait to read about our travails on Samoa and I wait for some better words about this "Before Departure" time in our lives.
