Looking for the Ideal Moment


Looking for the Ideal Moment
© 2018 by P Michael Biggs


Some people spend their entire lives
looking for the ideal moment.
I’ve heard them say …
It’s too cold. Another day perhaps.
It’s too hot. Let’s wait for cooler weather.

Interest rates are too high to buy.
Interest rates are too low to invest.
She’s pretty enough, I guess.
Wonder what she’ll look like
next year?

And they wait … and wait.

Some people wait for the ideal moment,
and then never get going.
There’s always something,
some reason to delay
getting in the game.

And they wait … and wait.

Know what I’ve learned?
There comes a time when
we have to make our ideal moment.
My feelings rarely have anything to do with
the ideal moment.

Perhaps … perhaps we take the
less-than-sterling opportunity
and turn it into an ideal moment.

Now, wouldn’t that be something?
