The realisation that life is just gangsta! (MY Pursuit of Happiness)

Everyone, I have just realised that life is just not fair! Yeah, I know what you are all thinking! Why did it take me so long to realise that! Why does life have you wait…. Wait for everything!!! I know that good things come to those who wait and that you appreciate everything that you wait for but…. Please, the wait is just so long and so painful! The worst part is when you wait when the returns of your wait are very uncertain!

Eish… Anticipation is one of the worst feelings in the world! It leads you to do things before the time is right which in turn spoils the surprise and you miss out on what would have been the best present in the world! It is human nature to want to know what the surprise is but then be disappointed once the present has been opened ahead of time. You feel like you have been waiting in vain and that the present wasn’t that great after all or you realise how special the present is and wish you has waited.

What does it take to be happy? To try open the present before its time and be disappointed or to wait for the right time and be disappointed then, or lastly, to find happiness after the wait? Those are the only possible outcomes! As much as the dilemma seems unbearable there only happens to be one option! Wait! Rather wait trusting that the present was worth the wait than open the present ahead of time and end up spoiling the surprise!

Wise words!!! Waiting seems to be the theme for everyone at the moment, ay? Well, all I got to say is this... the right thing can happen at the wrong time, which makes it wrong. But if you hold on long enough you end up with the best of the best! If you go looking for something that isn't ready to be found, you end up with second best. Dunno bout you but I don't want to be the person that gets to the end of their life and realises there was SO MUCH MORE - if only we were patient enough to see beyond the immediate future! Plus, if the outcome is uncertain, God's got you exactly where He wants you... TOTALLY reliant upon HIM! Wait for the VERY best... trust and expect that's what you'll get and you will end up with everything you ever wanted :)
