Riding Through It

There's an expression that horse trainers use whenever a client's ride becomes difficult - "Keep riding through it." I've heard it at least a hundred times while riding my horse. It's a function of good horsemanship. If you give up or get off in the midst of difficulties, you might win the battle that day but lose the war in the long run. Learning to be really good at something takes persistence and time. Such it is with life; so it is with writing.

The End of Waiting

Picture
 Most of us hate to wait. It's frustrating. But, if you look at it from the perspective of what you get at the end of waiting, it's really terrific.

So, what do I mean? Let's look at the things we wait for most in our lives.
  • We wait to fall in love. In the end, if it's the right person, it brings joy.
  • We wait to finally pay off debt. When we do, we're free.
  • We wait to get well. And when we recover, we are grateful for our lives.
  • We wait to finish school. When we do, we have an entire new life to which to look forward.
  • We wait for that all important interview. If it goes well, we're set to make money and live as we hope to.
  • We wait for our friends to call, text, or meet us. When they do, we're happy.
  • We wait for transportation. But we enjoy the destination.
  • We wait for our computers to reboot. Once they do, we can get on with it!
  • We wait for doctors, dentists, and therapists. Once seen, we hopefully feel better.
  • We wait for a table at a restaurant. In the end, we are sustained with a great meal.
  • We wait for vacations. What wonderful memories they bring in the end.
  • We wait for special moments - birthdays, anniversaries, and special events. They leave us with great memories and time with those we love.
As for me, I wait for my first great-granddaughter to be born. You can only imagine the joy that will bring me. 

I hope my readers look forward in anticipation to the last book in my Moon Blood Series coming out in February 2020. I hope it gives them entertainment and satisfaction. In the meantime, if you haven't read all the books in the series,  you can catch up here: http://mybook.to/MoonBlood1 (I know. Shameless plug. Sorry.)

No matter what any of us await, focus on the end result, not the waiting. It will bring you satisfaction.

Til Next Time,
​Carol
