Waiting and patience are essential to life, until everything starts to feel like a never-ending cycle. The weekend, for example, is what I look forward to all week. Waiting for each weekend feels like a highly repetitive schedule, which it is. But the wait is always worth it, whether it’s a chill weekend or a fun one.

When it comes to school, we wait for each day to be over, counting down until Friday. Then the schedule repeats itself once it hits Sunday. It’s the same with breaks during the year; we wait for winter break, spring break, and then summer break. Once again, the cycle repeats.

Life almost feels like a waiting game, but what exactly are we waiting for? We watch the clock in each class, waiting for it to end. At work, people do the same thing, watching the clock until their shift is over. Just to do it all again the next day.

I sometimes wish the idea of time had never been created. I understand that it helps people stay organized, but I also think it can feel like brainwashing. Something about the idea of time feels off to me. As I said, it always feels like a constant waiting game that never ends.
