Waiting

The night is so quiet and still, you almost have to hold your breath for fear of making a ripple in the water and ruining the scene. The lone gondolier on duty rests silently in his craft. He has nothing to do, other than wait for customers to appear for a midnight gondola ride. His daydreams and night dreams drift off into infinity like the reflections in the water. Just waiting. Someone will come.

Guess what? The creative space I was feeling yesterday was perfect. A friend asked me for some design help, and I happen to have this creative time free. I love how things work out. Now I have a fun new project, something completely different to do for a little while. I can help her out before getting back to my own ideas, and will be refreshed for the change of activity.

I was just waiting, like the gondolier, and the right thing appeared…

Do you find yourself waiting? Do you take the time to pause and breathe, and see what comes along?

  3. Recently I've been going at about 200 miles per hour without stepping on the breaks, but that's just temporary until I get my next job sorted out 🙂 I'll be off to beautiful Cornwall next week to stay in a little house on the beach, quietly celebrate my birthday and recharge my batteries, can't wait.
    Love the photo, he looks so chilled out, I would love to join him 🙂

  4. Outstanding photo! The stillness is amazing, waiting and learning to be still… what a concept!

  5. While it doesn't come naturally, I search for it everyday, in one form or other. It keeps me sane.

  6. Beautifully captured. The water could be a mirror! Such stillness. I'm waiting – waiting to get some inspiration on what to do with my life!! 🙂

  10. thanks for the inspiration…yes…pausing and waiting; like the gondolier I want to be stretched out with open chest, heart and arms ready to embrace for the gift that will show up…Laura King
