Daily Prompt : Almost
In response to one-word prompt : Almost
On my way to the bus stop, I crossed the street, I walked a few steps and was close to the stop, when I noticed the bus pulling away I wished I came five minutes earlier.
I was almost there, I took a few steps now that I missed the bus, wondering should I go home or wait another thirty minutes to get the next bus.
I could not decide if I should stay or leave, my hesitancy kept me on the spot for at least twenty minutes. I convinced me all I need is ten minutes, to get the bus.
Ten minutes vanished like a puff of smoke. I looked up, saw the bus coming, I congratulated myself for my patience to WAIT!

Dear Robert,
I always heard the proverb, ‘Patience is the mother of virtue.’ So I decided to experience it, happily enough I found out it really is true.
Thank you for your nice comment. 🙂
Interesting anecdote 🙂 This is how we feel when we reach “almost” in time. Thanks for sharing 🙂
At that time I wasn’t so happy knowing, I’ll have to wait another thirty minutes in a cold shed.
It worked out, even though my challenge was tested I somehow overcame it. 🙂
