Journal Writing Prompt: What are you waiting for?

By Dee · Friday, July 28th, 2006

“All of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.”

~Dale Carnegie

If Mr. Carnegie is right, then, the natural question that arises is:  what are we really waiting for?  We know, somewhere (maybe deep inside, but, somewhere), that the “magical rose garden over the horizon” will never appear - because the one we dream of today, when we achieve it, will turn into a grander and broader rose garden that we do not have - yet.

In your journal, answer this simple question:  What am I waiting for?  When will I allow myself to start living and enjoying today - this rose garden that I have, the rose that’s right in front of me?

Happy Journaling!
