A Watched Pot

"Rome was not built in a day."

"How can a society that exists on instant mashed potatoes, packaged cake mixes, frozen dinners, and instant cameras teach patience to its young?"

Waiting is difficult. It is anxiety-provoking and nerve-wracking. Watching the minutes tick by makes for a looooong day.

We put an offer on a house last night, and we are impatiently patiently waiting to hear back on it.



"Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet."
Jean-Jacques Rousseau

I hope and pray this is so.
