Hello Hive account@missellimac, many of us can relate to you, but you know the answer yourself. I loved your words, that's where it all lies.

"It teaching me patience, humility, and even faith. It’s as if life is reminding me, “You’re not in control of everything, but that doesn’t mean nothing is happening.”"*

Faith goes hand in hand with patience, and that really shapes us. But waiting is not a waste of time, as long as we don't sit around with our arms crossed. While we wait, we continue to do things that refine and strengthen us. Not overthinking things and doing what we have to do and taking small steps that bring us closer to our goal is the best we can do.

The truth is that there are goals that are not achieved, but they can lead to something better, and in the end, we become better than we were at the beginning, but only if, as I said, we have not sat idly by while waiting. Greetings to you from Venezuela.
