Waiting is not only acceptable, but pleasurable.
"wild patience" from The Knitting Goddess, Deborah Bergman
Wild patience is a particularly fertile and creative state. It takes a simple or scarce resource, applies it to way too much time to be accounted for rationally, and akes it into a whole lot of something. Wild patience is powerful, once discovered, it can be handily and easily applied to other areas of life.
I call it wild because it is innovative and traditional at the same time. On the one hand, it is entirely impractical, and can even cause hardship or inconvenience on the everyday level. At the same time, it is eminently practical to the long term sustenance of the heart and soul.
