Wait

Sometimes it's the wait that kills you. It doesn't matter what you are waiting for, be at a train station, a doctors office or in line waiting for a sandwich. There are so few actual activities we get to do in life. Most of our time is spent planning for a thing, preparing for a thing, and learning from it afterwards. It's like the divers in the summer Olympics who spend years and years in order to perform a two-second controlled fall into water. 

They spend their whole lives sacrificing, and exercising, and eating right and practicing for hours and hours to learn how to fall just right. All for those two seconds. Afterwards, if done right they will talk about those two seconds for years to come. It is like having huge book ends for only one book on the shelf. It makes no sense.
