When the long awaited thing arrives
/When I am waiting for something, it seems so far away and out of reach. When it arrives it seems like it was inevitable.
What is more surprising is that I don't feel very different. I am not changed by it. I am the same person.
I understand then that my work is not to make things arrive. Rather it is to prepare myself so that when they do arrive I can be my best to make the most of it and its consequences.
