Is it worth the wait?

Patience: quiet, steady perseverance; even-tempered care; diligence.

Its amazing how this small word can carry such weight. It can make you crazy while you wait for a job, make you sweat when waiting to purpose to the love of your life, makes you have butterflies when waiting for the arrival of your first born yet this small word is something that many have a problem with understanding. Many believe that a weak person is the one who shows restraint but its the complete opposite it takes a STRONG person to show patience. you are putting faith in the idea that something great is just around the corner.

Even I have a hard time with patience but I know that if I hold out it always works out in the end. The older you get the wiser you become and you know the difference between being lazy and being patient. You also learn that you should never be presumptuous because that only leads to you looking like a fool and no one wants to look like that.

It kills me when I see people acting presumptuously and they seem to really believe in the infomercial slogan...If the don't ACT NOW the moment will pass. believe me if you are patient good things always come to those who wait. "But my situation is different" you say..NEWSFLASH: IT'S NOT!!!! you are human just like I am human and you make mistakes just like I make mistakes and sometimes acting on impulse is not the right solution.

Life is a beautiful thing its full of ups and downs and its those downs that really make us enjoy the ups :) There is no need to rush through life take it one day at a time and if you are blessed to have another day tomorrow work on patience because in the end.......



....and that is NOT just my thought on the matter.
