Billy Crystal’s son in City Slickers is Mysterio in Spider-Man Homecoming.
I saw both of these movies when they came out.
And Billy Crystal’s Mitch Robbins felt old.

I have a heart full of thanks for receiving such love.
Everyone waits, but there is a waiting that is the fruit of trust in God, and there is the waiting that is a stewing form of complaint.
God gives us opportunity to grow in love and trust for him while we wait.
From Jani Ortlund:
Patience is not quite the same as waiting. While waiting is something we do, patience is something we offer. We wait because we must — we have little choice in the matter. But patience is our gift to our Father while we wait. In the silence, in the waiting, patience chooses to declare, “Lord, I love you. I know I don’t love you as I ought, but I want to love you more than your answer to my prayers. I will try to offer you my patient heart as long as you ask me to wait on this.”

This was an interesting article in which the writer describes the concern that pastors live with regarding the well-being of those they serve in ministry.
The concern is not a sign something is wrong, rather it is a mark of calling.
And it is part of our lives, to some degree or another, every minute of every day.
It may not be the only thing on our minds, but it is never completely absent from our minds.
And it is never completely resolved.
What can go wrong is the way pastors deal with the concern.
Sometimes we allow it to take us to dark places.
It should drive us to God.
From David Huffstutler:
It is a care for others and can tend toward worry and even despair if we do not cast these anxieties to God in prayer. It is the pressure of anxiety for others that moves us to act on behalf of the ones whose needs we perceive. It usually involves being anxious over people’s sin—we hope that they will forsake sin, grow in Christ, and persevere. In fact, 2 Corinthians 11:29Open in Logos Bible Software (if available) describes Paul as burning within (puroō) for those who are weak and fall. It also involves being anxious over people’s suffering—we hope that they will carry on in the face of difficulty and trial. Moreover, we hope that everyone will do these things together as they carry out the mission of the church and make disciples for the sake of the Name.
