Waiting is one of life's hardships
In the world of Lemony Snicket, waiting is indeed one of life's hardships that characters frequently face. From the Baudelaire orphans waiting for their next guardian to the mysterious VFD organization waiting for their next mission, the theme of waiting is prevalent throughout the series.For the Baudelaire siblings, waiting is a constant struggle as they are passed from one guardian to another, never able to find a stable home. They are forced to wait for their next guardian to arrive, never knowing what kind of person they will be or what challenges they will face next. This uncertainty and lack of control over their own lives make waiting a particularly difficult hardship for them to endure.
Similarly, the members of the VFD organization are often left waiting for their next mission or assignment. They must wait for orders from their superiors, never knowing when or where they will be called into action. This constant state of limbo can be frustrating and anxiety-inducing, as they are left to wonder when their next mission will come and what dangers they will face.
