What do you know about patience? According to Google, Patience is the capacity to accept or tolerate
delay, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious.
We all have patience instilled within us. Each and every
one of us have a different level of patience. We have tolerance level that we
have set and keep building it from time to time. A good example of patience is…
raising kids. I cannot imagined how my parents have high patience towards us
since we were born.
Among the siblings, I was a bad-ass
child and put my parents into panic mode and get to their nerves more often. I had
few stitches at the shoulder joint due to a big fall from the stairs and hit
the machete. I walked the burning coals which was left on the ground unattended
after my grandfather finished BBQ and in return, my feet cut opened by the
doctor to remove the blood clot and prevent it from any infection. I had a bad
bicycle accident, cuts and bruises on my hands and knee, blood flowing the
whole leg. My left arm broken twice. Can you imagine how my parents react to
it?
Every parents want the best for
their kids. Education, foods, health and well being. I can’t thank them enough
for providing me the best they could. Life is not easier. I’m grateful. I’m
grateful they have high tolerance towards us.
What about patience with your partner?
Your best friends? Your colleagues at work? We have set patience level accordingly
without you even realizing it. It was not built yesterday. It is ever evolving.
Patience is God’s greatest gift to
us fellow human. So do LOVE. In life, you may experience ups and downs. Over
and over again. If you don’t have patience, you will not see what God has plan for
you.
Remember…
Patience is a virtue.
