Impatience Really?

There have been a few times in my life that I find myself watching a scene unfold in someone's life. I am part of the act, but somehow can still watch the story unwind. I watch as the main character gets mixed up and makes mistakes, but unlike most nice stories, they dont fix them. They keep making more and more mistakes, making the wrong choices and not doing what seems to me so plainly the right thing. I watch as they change, and then I watch as I grow impatient with them. I dont know if it is because they are being stupid, or if they cant see the truth as plainly as I see it. I can take a peek to the end of the story, and see that the main character is going to hit a bad ending unless they stop what they change their direction right now. But, I can also see that they are not going to change, they are going to head right into that bad mess. I watch, but I cannot change it. I know the end, but nothing I can say will change the endind or warn the main character. So I simply sit back and watch the story. Shaking my head. Impatient? Really? Or something else?
