An open letter to those who are patiently waiting
This is for those who patiently stay under the shed of their waiting season, gor those who believe and trust in the perfect timing of life, for someone who waits for their lost self to come back. This letter is for you.
Dear Someone,
Hello, how are you? I hope you are safe and sound, fighting and continuing to keep going towards your journey in life. Don’t forget to take care of yourself. Do not forget to acknowledge your emotions. Even though sometimes things are uncertain and hard to understand, I know your waiting won’t be wasted. Everything will be worth it in the end.
Whenever you feel like giving up, always look back on how far you’ve come up. However, you can always rest when everything drains you. Never refuse to give yourself some time to rest, whether to regain another strength or find peace of mind. It’s just like how important the rest notes are in musical structure. You know the proper time to take a deep breath and sing along again with life.
Of course, it’s also hard to wait when you lost yourself. There are times when you will feel off-track, left behind, and hopeless. You patiently wait for your passion to restore, eagerly look for the fire that once flamed you, and the love in your hearts. I want to tell you that everything you’re experiencing now is not the end of your destination. Thus, it’s just part of the process before you reach your winning moments. But remember, you must be willing to open yourself once again. You may fail, but you always learn. You’ll never know if you never try.
Nevertheless, I want to remind you that not all you have in your hand now are worthy to bring. While you patiently stay on track of your waiting season, you must let go of something, probably the things that you don’t deserve. It’s easy to travel your way without the things you don’t need to carry more on your season.
Stay on your track and wait for your turn. So, when it is your time, you know that everything happens at its perfect time. I am rooting for your success and looking forward to knowing how your wonderful story will unfold.
