I am presently sitting beside the gate at the airport listening and watching as they are frantically trying to figure out how to get people on the flights to their destination.
Me, I am just a "con"- an "employee" on standby, thus, I am the last priority. I have already sat through three flights; two of which were supposed to have room but because of delays and cancelations, I am "bumped". Once again, with sweaty palms and heart racing, straining to hear my name called last minute.
Sigh. It is definitely a reminder to have patience and lots of them. It's also telling me that I just need to take it all in stride. After a busy year and summer, this is my calling. Be patient and take it in stride. And for me to remember that it's all art of the adventure. Right?
