  1. WOW. The whole concept of “waiting for something…” I thought that was just me!! Seriously!! It didn’t even occur to me that there were others like this. I’m constantly, constantly waiting for something, and often, I don’t even know what!
    Thanks!

  2. thank you, chana jenny.
    i just had a long talk with my DH, and he claimed that i was always waiting for the “something” to make me happy. i was surprised, i never thought of myself that way. and here you are, describing me exactly !
    you are right. i have made a new hachlata to try to refocus myself. see myself as happy TODAY and everyday.
    to help, i have signed up for rabbi nivin’s chabura. i think that taking action will help me keep my hachlata.
    thank you for providing us all with such mind-opening gifts.

  3. The waiting is the hardest for me when I’m tired/exhausted. I just say, If only I wasn’t exhausted right now, I’d be able to be a much better mother. It is EXTREMELY hard to be good and have patience and handle everything the right way, being exhausted. Thanks for the lesson… I will try to work on being my best and pushing tiredness AWAY!
