Sitting and Waiting

It seems like we do a lot of sitting and waiting. Waiting for something exciting/good to happen to us, and we sit simply because we will go bonkers with movement if we choose to stand. I'm currently sitting and waiting for a job application to get sent in and then to hear from the potential employers. I sat around last night waiting for my older sister to come home. Why is it we sit around and wait? The waiting part can be a good thing as it teaches us patience. But why do we sit when we wait? Do you see what I'm getting at here? Too often we sit around not doing anything to make something happen while we wait and instead of teaching us patience it often shows us how impatient we humans are. This often turns into laziness and the book of Proverbs in the Bible often speaks against being idle and lazy. It makes sense when you read it in that fashion. We often don't like to think of it that way. At least I know I sure don't. When you're doing something constructive/fun, the time just seems to fly by. That's because you're actually doing something. When you don't do anything, the time seems to go by slower than usual. So I just want to encourage all of you guys out there that instead of sitting, and watching life go by to go out on an adventure and accomplish something. It is when we go out and do something that great things happen.
"Adventure is an attitude of the heart."
