Thought of the day...


Okay, I know everyone has heard the old saying patience is a virtue. Well, it is. Sort of. In a way, in certain situations, patience is a way of living. Patiently waiting for the next big break in life, the baby you've always dreamed of being born or even for some of you who haven't yet reached 30, the next birthday. Sometimes, we have to wait patiently while someone we love passes from this life to the next.
The word in itself can mean many different things depending on who is using it. Now, for me, I am presently learning another meaning for the word patience. Wait for what you want almost more than anything else in the world. I submitted my story today and now i have to patiently wait for the results. Good. Bad.
So that brings me to the end of this thought. Maybe we should all have a little more patience with not only others but with ourselves. Because when a person is wait and trying to practice patience, it's not always an easy thing to do.
Have a wonderful evening!

Patience is the essence of hope and an intrinsic motivation which drives us all forward. It is a pleasure doubled when what we have waited for arrives, and well deserved.

That is so very true. When a person manages to make it to the end of the journey not only do they get the reward waiting but they can savor the fact they made it through without going insane.
Thanks SO much Darek for the comment.
