Patience.... Patience

Patience is a virtue that could make a person crazy. It is one of the things easily said than done. How can I be patient when everyday seems like hell of a day? How can I be patient when the world seems so unfair? Patience is hard especially you are tired of this world. We want to win now. That's the mentality. I think what makes patience so hard to grasped is the fact that we are being asked to wait for the things that doesn't have a fix assurances.

But it is what it is. Patience is about character. Patience is about willing to wait and accept the fact that not all things are instantly given. We also needed to work to gain what we have longed for. This is another thing about patience. It requires effort, perseverance and dedication. You cannot simply be patient by just waiting for things to happen but you also are willing to work for it to happen. 

This afternoon, I felt jealous in a way for those farmers that delivered their products and made money out of it. I thought why not us? Just them. And the simply answer for that is, they earned it. They had planted, patiently waited for their crop to grow and eventually reaped the reward of their own hard work. Patience is a virtue. It is a character. It is connected to the goals and aspirations of a person. It can define the character of a person.
