Antsy in Anticipation

I have always felt that “antsy” and “anticipation” go hand in hand.  And before too long, slowly yet surely, anticipation becomes synonymous to ANXIETY.

In which case, I wonder… Why do we even anticipate?

But I do know, it’s easier said than done.  We do not get antsy or anxious because we want to anticipate… Anticipation just happens!

• Buying gifts for friends and family [Will they like it?  Will they love it?]

• Dressing up [Is this good enough?  Would I look better in the other dress?]

• Going to sleep [Will I miss the alarm?  Will I turn off the alarm and forget to get up?]

• Having a conversation [Will I forget what I’m about to say?]

• Opening a present [Will I like what’s inside the box?  Will my disappointment unintentionally be reflected on my face?]

 

Knowing whatever will be will be we still anticipate what will be…!
