We live in a society of instant gratification: instant coffee, instant breakfast, instant money from our local ready bank machine--it's everywhere we look!! No wonder so many of us look for instant answers to all our problems.
Building trust takes time, change takes time, healing old wounds take time; there are no immediate, ready-made solutions.
We all have dark times in our lives, but the journey to better times is often what makes us happier, stronger people. When we stop expecting instant relief, we may come to believe that where we are today is exactly where we should be.
"If I am under pressure and setting myself deadlines, I will stop for a few minutes and think of just this one day and what I can do with it."
