Waiting ...


It is not easy… to wait. Waiting is what the hunter does, and the poet and the slugger. He waits for the moment of inevitability and fate and then he swings, or shoots, or takes up the pen to put down a line. They don’t teach us to wait in America; they teach us to grab. But waiting is what we do when we are looking for something beautiful, when we are looking for an end to our sorrow. Nothing is infinite in life, not even sorrow.

I LOVE this quote. I need to apply it to my photography - waiting for the perfect moment to present itself rather than trying to force photos by click-click-clicking away.
