Patience....UGH!
Any of you that know me, know I am NOT patient or tolerant. I don't like to wait and frequently exaggerate the passing of time (i.e. "It took them a week and a half" when it might have been a few hours). My Mom used to say, "Patience is a virtue". My reply, "I don't want to be virtuous right now". For some reason, this has been one of my most difficult things to conquer and it gets in my way almost daily. I know it continues to be placed in my path so that I will conquer it - but really-UGH!
While this lesson is strategically placed in my days - so are some really special people to help me to see the humor in things and call me on my junk. I am so blessed to have so many good people in my life. Good luck to them on helping me develop this thing called patience.
As for tolerance, I can only say - let's work on one thing at a time.
