🌹 Happy 81, Daw Suu 🌹

I’ve found more warmth, more wholehearted love, more tenderness, more courage, and more caring concern among my people, as we hope together, we suffer together and struggle together, than anywhere else in the world Aung San Suu Kyi Letter from Burma (1997)

မင်းဘာစောင့်နေတာလဲ

Think of all those times you spend waiting for something in the day: the rain to stop, the bus to arrive, traffic to clear, entertainments to start, a kettle to boil, the job interview offer to come.

And what about people, the wait at the doctor's office, the optician, the dentist, the supermarket check-out operator, the post office clerk, the waiter at restaurant, and last but not least that someone you hold dear?

All these things and people keep you waiting.. the individual slices of time may not be long but if you will add up those minutes you may be surprised at how much you lose.... 

Next time you find yourself waiting..
