Waiting for the bus.

I remember...

Once... a long time ago...

Not that long, it was just a few years... 

But when you think about it a few years is a long time. 

Anyway. A few years back I had an epiphany.  It happened while I was waiting for the bus.  I even wrote an essay about that epiphany my first semester in uni.

Right now I'm waiting for the bus again, only it's a different time, a different country, and of course a different me. I just remembered the past, as all tend to do, and I recalled this epiphany. So here I go, sharing my not-so-impressive life wisdom with you.

Sorry for that pause, bus came and I had to board it.

I was sitting on a bench, waiting for the bus a few years back and I realized I didn't want to be doing this. That I'd much rather be doing something completely different, be with someone who is important to me. I know, what a shocker, but keep reading.

I realized that when we are waiting for something, anything, sometimes our minds turn blank, completely and utterly empty. As we wait if we start thinking how we'd much rather be with someone else, then that someone is a person who truly matter to us. An Important Person, with a capital "I" and a capital "P". 

Different time...
Different place...
Different person...
Same situation.

Those who become our thoughts when our minds are empty, mean the most to us at that very moment. And that makes them, even if only for a second, our universe.
