When Things Take Time

I know I haven't blogged in ages but I think from now on that is going to change. 

For a while I've been feeling down and out, like the world is taking its time with me. Sometimes it's as though all the good I do and how hard I work won't come back to me tenfold but today well tonight, this morning, whatever you want to call it, it was though I had an epiphany. 

Good things take time.

I've been working since I was 11. Yes please, I have been making my own money since I was 11. I've done exceptionally well in school. But somehow I can't seem to get it right. I'm frustrated, I feel like giving up, but every time I think, 'today is the day, I'm done with it all', I get the feeling like it's not over yet. 
Good things take time, we can't continually think that by rushing our lives, better things will happen. I may be getting old with serious baby fever, but that's a good thing that takes time. I am feverishly saving to pay my bills and move out, be on my own again, be a REAL adult once more, but that's a good thing that takes time. We are often so consumed by how far others have gotten especially when they're the same age as you, or we're obsessed with thinking 'why has it happened for that person but not for me' and that's because everything that is good takes time. Patience is key, love is eminent and God is in all of us. 

Good things take time. Remember
that. 

May The Road Rise To Meet You. 💋

  1. Good morning how are you?

    My name is Emilio, I am a Spanish boy and I live in a town near to Madrid. I am a very interested person in knowing things so different as the culture, the way of life of the inhabitants of our planet, the fauna, the flora, and the landscapes of all the countries of the world etc. in summary, I am a person that enjoys traveling, learning and respecting people's diversity from all over the world.

    I would love to travel and meet in person all the aspects above mentioned, but unfortunately as this is very expensive and my purchasing power is quite small, so I devised a way to travel with the imagination in every corner of our planet. A few years ago I started a collection of used stamps because trough them, you can see pictures about fauna, flora, monuments, landscapes etc. from all the countries. As every day is more and more difficult to get stamps, some years ago I started a new collection in order to get traditional letters addressed to me in which my goal was to get at least 1 letter from each country in the world. This modest goal is feasible to reach in the most part of countries, but unfortunately it’s impossible to achieve in other various territories for several reasons, either because they are countries at war, either because they are countries with extreme poverty or because for whatever reason the postal system is not functioning properly.

    For all this I would ask you one small favor:
    Would you be so kind as to send me a letter by traditional mail from Barbados? I understand perfectly that you think that your blog is not the appropriate place to ask this, and even, is very probably that you ignore my letter, but I would call your attention to the difficulty involved in getting a letter from that country, and also I don’t know anyone neither where to write in Barbados in order to increase my collection. a letter for me is like a little souvenir, like if I have had visited that territory with my imagination and at same time, the arrival of the letters from a country is a sign of peace and normality and an original way to promote a country in the world. My postal address is the following one:

    Emilio Fernandez Esteban
    Avenida Juan de la Cierva, 44
    28902 Getafe (Madrid)
    Spain

    If you wish, you can visit my blog www.cartasenmibuzon.blogspot.com where you can see the pictures of all the letters that I have received from whole World.

    Finally I would like to thank the attention given to this letter, and whether you can help me or not, I send my best wishes for peace, health and happiness for you, your family and all your dear beings.

    Yours Sincerely

    Emilio Fernandez

I try not to create a space of negativity, my mum always told me, 'If you have nothing good to say, then don't say anything at all'.
