Don’t Waste Your Wait ©Dawn Minott

On January 4, 2024August 30, 2024 By Dawn MinottIn Poetry

Beforeword: Waiting is an inevitable part of living. However, how we wait is not prescribed, we define it. In every wait is the pause — a fertile ground for introspection, a space to nurture the seeds of understanding, to embrace the stillness as a teacher, to hone in on our resilience, to strengthen our bounce-back-ability.

  Thanks Sadje. Ive been a student of “waiting” for quite some time now. She’s a diligent instructor. No matter what we do nothing happens before it’s time, so we must wait.
