Waiting For…
So many people waiting.
In Monroeville, paramedic Dave Sherman was waiting to respond to another emergency call.
In Indiana Township, Lucas Goeller was waiting for a life-saving liver transplant.
In Mt. Lebanon, Emily Eagleton and Laura Handy were waiting to become parents.
In East Deer Township, dozens of motorists were waiting in a construction zone.
Noah Osburn of Kansas, left, and Jamie Mitchell of Alaska, wait at Pittsburgh International Airport on Feb. 25, 2024. They were en route to West Virginia.
At times, we are all waiting for something. For some, the wait ends with a life-changing event. But often, the wait is a disruption to our schedule, a pause in our day.
Sometimes we’re waiting in the wings or playing the waiting game. Sometimes the wait is difficult to bear.
Do good things come to those who wait? Perhaps, but wait just a minute…Will it be worth the wait?
What are you waiting for?
