I'm the most impatient person you will probably ever meet. I want what I want and I want it right then. When I have to wait, I usually get super frustrated.

Yet, all I feel like I do is wait.

I wait for class, for practice, in lines, for my friends to do something, etc. I am constantly feeling like I'm at a standstill waiting for something to happen.

That's how I've been recently with things falling into place for me. I've been unhappy for a while and I've also had a lot on my mind about many different things and all I'm doing is waiting for these things to change.

Recently I've had a change of heart about waiting. Waiting is the beautiful part of life. Waiting for God to do things in your life tests your faith and patience with God. Waiting for that right person to walk in your life teaches you to love yourself. Waiting for things to fall together instead of forcing them to shows you the importance of trusting the process.

I have been through so much in past relationships, I feel like I'm, in a sense, "owed" a good relationship now. I could be so good to the right person and it gets frustrating waiting for that person to walk into my life. Yet I'm so thankful for this time by myself because I have fallen in love with myself.

I went through a stage when I first got to college where I hated it all, myself, everything around me, etc. But God saying "no" and teaching me to trust myself and love myself has done so much for my wellbeing and I know the right person will benefit greatly from this. Taking this time to focus on myself has taught me not only what I want, but what I deserve. I have learned to not only love myself, but to love the life around me.

I have also struggled with the "in between" stage of life I'm in right now. I am expected to be an adult, but treated like a teenager. I have wanted out of this stage for so long, but I know this will be one of the best chapters of my life. Trusting that God will do so much through me in this stage keeps me pushing through it. One day, I will thank Him for this stage and the highs and lows of it.

Being patient and enjoying the process is what life is about, once you do that, everything will get immensely better. I promise.

Anything worth having is worth waiting for!
