Wait, for a short phase or for Lifetime???

Wait, always used for a short span of time. We have heard many people saying, "Hey, can you please wait for a while" or "Wait for a minute, please" but when a person who is close to you says it, is it for a moment or for a lifetime. When a close friend or someone you love says, “Wait for me", for how long they want us to wait for them. For how long should we wait for them? Many philosophers and thinkers would say that when a close friend or a loved one would ask you to wait, you should do till the time they come back to you, people madly in love would say that they can wait for lifetime but is it so? Do such relationships exist which could command lifetime wait from a person. People tend to make relationships out of sheer selfishness, to get their work done and leave as if you never existed for them, they might not recognize you after some point of time. Is there any one left on whom one can depend blindly, after talking to them one could feel lighthearted, are we left with 3 am relations anymore?

Once walking down the life street, I saw a stranger who looked familiar with friendly smile on the face. But it took no time for that person to remove that smile from the face and as mentioned earlier, that person only looked familiar.

One spends his entire life in waiting for the person who had once asked to wait and after some odd years when the person returns, asks strangely that why were you waiting? Who asked you to wait that long? Is it worthy to wait in relationships which u make and god don't?

People say that life comes a full circle but it would be correct to say that people come full circle. They take the complete round and come back to you just to make you realize that you did wrong by waiting for them. Are they saying themselves that they are not that worthy for whom one should wait or are they saying that you are fool who spent his life in waiting for them while they were roaming around and having fun.

Every individual has this question in mind but is afraid to ask because everybody knows the answer but they lack guts to face their own question which in turn give more pains...

Well I completely agree with you that waiting for a person for whom ur just an option is wastage of life... If that person is living his/her life to the fullest and roaming here n there then y the hell we are waiting rather for what are we actually waiting for?

Good way to express your thoughts bro and I completely agree with them though I mite not follow them actually in life :) but atleast its gud that u pen down watever you feels.

Keep it up, will be waiting for more to come from ur end...
