PATIENCE
PATIENCE is described as the ability to accept
suffering, hardships, delays or other intolerable situations without getting
upset. I think that definition is what
the writer thinks PATIENCE should be, but not exactly what PATIENCE is. PATIENCE is what you train yourself to
practice while dealing with suffering, hardships, delays and intolerable
situations or people. Practicing
PATIENCE is finding yourself really angry at a situation, such as a driver who
cuts you off in traffic. PATIENCE is
that big exhaling breath that you take before you toss your middle finger up or
push your foot on the gas. PATIENCE
says, “Now that was not nice of that jerk ahead of you, but don’t reduce
yourself to be a jerk like him or her. PATIENCE is the practice of breathing in
and out and counting to ten or to a hundred if need be. PATIENCE is the art of stopping yourself from
saying something mean when you have been hurt. PATIENCE is the ability to place
yourself in someone else’s shoes and say, “Maybe they are having a really bad
day. Let’s cut them a break.” PATIENCE is an action word not a passive
position. PATIENCE is not being mute nor
allowing yourself to be walked on.
PATIENCE is diplomacy when negotiating.
PATIENCE is thinking critically from many vantage points before making a
life-changing decision. PATIENCE is
acquired only by practice. None of us
are born PATIENT. PATIENCE is important
to you because one day you will need others
