Or airplane parts.
Monday August 29, 2016
Before departing for the 5 weeks of my sabbatical that are to take place overseas I felt myself getting more and more anxious. And I could not figure out why. Part of me was over the moon excited. And part of me thought I have made a terrible mistake and this was a terrible plan. I was both ready to go and sure I would never be ready.
How often do we all feel like this?
Once I arrived in Halifax for my 5 hour layover I thought ok. It'll be fine. But I'm not one for waiting. I hate waiting. Patient I am not.
And soon my five hour layover was 7 hours. Then 9. Finally, after a 4 hour delay I was on my way again. Anxiety completely gone. Now I was ready.
It seems that God was reminding me that sometimes, waiting is ok. That I don't have to be in such a rush ALL the time. Sometimes I can relax a bit.
And an airport full of slightly grumpy yet still pleasant employees and travelers was an excellent reminder of this!
