As humans, we are incredibly impatient and demanding. We know what we want and we want it now. That's just where the reality sets in; it is okay to wait. Although life passes us by in our minds faster than we like to think, there is no need to rush everything. If you truly believe in something, wait for it.

1. It takes time to build trust; some people are less trusting than others.

The more heartbreak you've been exposed to, the harder it is going to be to let someone in. It's not always true that a new person in your life isn't trustworthy or able to open themselves up to you. If someone makes a mistake, you can't give up on them either; we are all only human. There's no reason to rush through things because great things indeed take time.

2. Sometimes timing isn't right.

Sometimes we aren't ready to get involved in something just yet, even though we want it. The most important thing to do is to find yourself and love yourself before you can expect someone else to love you. If you're too eager and demanding you're going to create a void between you and the one you're after; ultimately, it will amount to nothing.

3. If it's meant to be, it will be.

One of the hardest decisions we have to make is whether to let go or to keep holding on. If you're the one letting go of someone, you're always going to wonder if it was the right move or not. If you're the person being let go, you're always going to wonder if it's time to move on or keep fighting. That decision is fully up to you when you feel it is right; some things are worth waiting for without an explanation.

4. You should always be first.

There comes a time where you have to sacrifice things for your own best interest. If your mind is full of so many things you want and need but you're unable to get there, you need to take a step back and get yourself together before you take someone else with you on that ride.

5. If you don't succeed, don't forget that you tried.

It's always better knowing that you tried rather than always tossing the what if?question inside your head. If you truly give something your all, that is the only thing you can do.

A lot of us are raised to believe that love is something magical and effortless, however, it's not as easy as we'd like it to be. Of course the reasons why people love each other are different from person to person. But love itself remains the same. Anyone can fall in love but people don't fall in love with just anyone; it comes so deep within you that you can't pinpoint the exact reasons why we love certain people. Through the hardships, it is okay to wait until you just know the time is right.
