Waiting makes it. A young man may waitforever for his true love, but after several yearshe’s no longer a young man. Similarly, lines at bankstake longer than expected. But dreams come truein time-lapse photography. You quickly reachthe head of the line where a beautiful clerk accepts your deposit.A one-hundred-year plant blossoms in seconds.An island in the sea is born in a spray of ash and steamgrows, washes away, and grows again, transforminga pile of hot boulders to a lovely green oasis.These are the rewards of patience. If you haven’t got itthen at least you could admire those who haveinstead of despising them for their lack of drive,instead of laughing when they belabor their meager privilegessubject to the cold stares of stingy bosses and unloving wives.
