I'm still waiting.
If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

Sometimes the luster wears off instant gratification, like the shiny new car you bought and then realize there are 7 years of payments before you actually own it.This message has been edited. Last edited by: egregore,

“All hoped-for things will come to you Who have the strength to watch and wait, Our longings spur the steeds of Fate, This has been said by one who knew.
‘Ah, all things come to those who wait,’ (I say these words to make me glad), But something answers soft and sad, ‘They come, but often come too late.”
A poem by Lady Mary Montgomerie Currie, writing under her pseudonym, Violet Fane. It was used in her poem ‘Tout vient a qui sait attendre.’

If not, you need a little bit of soul to put you right.
Good things have happened, but usually as the result of hard work.
