Are You Living & Dying in the Waiting Room?
Oh, you and your partner support one another’s creative life and work now? You still execute your work exceptionally well? And you still live a life of passion? Well, just wait until you have a kid.
Oh, you and your partner juggle having a child and you two still support your creative life and work? And you execute your work exceptionally well – if not better? And you live a life rich with passion and meaning? Well, just wait until you have two kids.
Or just wait until they’re old enough to talk back.
Or they’re teenagers.
Or just wait until you have to care for an ailing parent.
Or your own body starts ailing.
Or a natural disaster comes your way.
Or the economy tanks.
Or you die.
Some people wait
for Superman
for Godot
for Guffman
for miracles
for the end.
Others live.
Are you dying in the waiting room?
