WAIT™ (WAIT—/wāt/)
(We Are IT™)
💡 A declaration, an affirmation, and a realization—embodying the undeniable truth that we don’t need permission, validation, or outside recognition. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. No more waiting, because We Are IT™.

An acronym embodying the spirit of the BLACKLiFE™ Celebration, that is BLACK™ | The Year. WAIT™ is both an affirmation and a revelation: "The wait ain't ovuh—the WAIT™ is here… and has been all along!"
More than a mere word, WAIT™ signals a profound awakening, a recognition that the moment is not ahead—it is now. It stands as a declaration of presence, power, and purpose.
At its core, WAIT™ unfolds into the phrase: "We Are IT™", underscoring a collective identity rooted in self-determination and intentional action. The "IT™" within WAIT™ carries deeper significance, often understood as:
Intentional Transformation—a call to purposeful evolution, shifting from anticipation to activation.
"Ain’t no savior coming, ain't no cavalry on the way. It’s on us. WAIT™—We Are IT™."

"I stopped waiting on opportunity. I became opportunity. WAIT™."

Person 1: Walt Whitman and Whitman chocolates are both great, but neither of them can spell.
Person 2: Poor things, don't they know it's

waitmonger 

adj. a person who makes you wait either for a long time, or repeatedly. From the word 'hatemonger' but instead of arousing hate, this person creates wait periods. Typically, a drug dealer is a waitmonger. Even better, doctors are waitmongers (but they're pretty much drug dealers too, innit?)
"What's taking this #@$% waitmonger so %#@& long?!!!"

waitment 

A scheduled pause time between songs, but could also apply to phone calls.
I just adjusted the waitment on my music player to 5 seconds.

During the commercial free hour on the radio, I think they adjust the waitment longer.

I wish my manager would adjust the waitment between phone calls to be longer than 5 seconds, since I'm never ready for the next call.

I've noticed that when I hang up my cell phone, there is a 5 second waitment before my next call comes through.
