In medicine,

waiting sometimes heals. But in some other time it kills.

To change an acute condition to chronic, they buy time.

Thus to wait is a decision to be made just when we expect the outcome would be better by waiting. And there should be no waiting without hesitation for a backup planning.

As in life, people sometimes defeat the purpose of waiting. Waiting without planning, even with no solid reason.

To help, we believe that we are not strong enough.

To change ourselves, we claim that we are not ready,

To change things, we are conquered by fear.

To go for haji, we are constraint by time and commitments.

To accept responsibilities, yet we are not prepared.

We wait, wait and wait and never plan for a change.

I remembered my ustadh in Bandung once said that,

"Sedangkan mata air yang mengalir sudah dirancang dengan teliti oleh yang Maha Kuasa ke mana ia akan lalu. Untuk mengairi tanaman, ke tadahan kolam dan sebagainya. Bagi memenuhi matlamat dan keperluan alam. Jadi bagaimana manusia itu bisa berfikir bahawa dengan hanya mengikut arus dia akan sampai ke destinasi yang benar?" 

Going with the flow actually is not a valid excuses.

Stop waiting, unless waiting is the better plan.
