Patients is a virtue...
Patients is a virtue... Meaning: The ability to wait for something without getting angry or upset is a valuable quality in a person. Note: patience (noun) = the ability to wait calmly; the capacity to accept delay without getting angry | virtue (noun) = a quality or trait that most people consider to be morally good or desirable in a person Last week my friend was wishing me a happy birthday and asked me if I was excited... I laughed and asked if he really needed to ask ME that question... of course I was excited... it was MY BIRTHDAY... everyone should be excited.. his response was, so you are "elf" excited... I asked what "elf" excited was and he sent me a picture of Will Farrell jumping up and down from the movie "Elf" when he got excited saying "Santa's coming!! Santa's coming".... so yes, that was me.... "elf" excited... my friend laughed at me and said when aren't I "elf" excited...and said I needed to learn some "patients"... Recently, I had a friend ask me to be patient... and that's it, that is all he asked of me... well, turns out, I kinda might have let him down a little and didnt show much patients... so, I went back to my friend who said I am always "elf" excited and asked him to teach me to be patient... and after he stopped laughing.. he said I need to take a deep breathe and not rush so much... I get so excited when I am waiting for the good things to happen, that I sometimes rush thru the fun part... just to get to the punch line.. so after a lengthy discussion on my lack of patients, we decided that I needed to sit down and have a litte chat with "Miss pouty pants" in voice in my head that pouts when she doesnt get what she wants when she wants it... and feels hurt and dejected.. and that she needed to stop being like that... so, after having my "little chat" with her... and telling her, she needed to slow down and relax... deep breath in, slow breath out... deep breath in, slow breath out.. that she neeeded to gain some control and figure out how to be patient and to wait for the good thing to happen naurally and slowly... So, my question to you my friends... I seek more advice on how to learn patients... becuase, when it comes to cranky people, I have shit loads of patients with them... so how is it... when I know something good is happening, I cant seem to have that same amount of patients... I need some more help in figuring out and learning to be a more patient person... becuase as I sit here right now, I am very excited for tomorrow night and cant wait for it to get here.... PLEASE HELP ME!!!! How do I learn patients... NOW!!! |

lol girl....tomorrow night?!? i think patience is more of a honed skill that requires a fair bit of conscious effort, practice and over some time. What i would suggest as this thing u are waiting for is tomorrow night...is avoidance...by that i mean getting it out of your mind through distraction....doing something else that is engaging and will take your mind off it. my thoughts....for what its worth good luck mean!

My advice.......... Until you master the fine art of patience, employ the use of one of the many devices you peddle. Enjoy until your patience is rewarded. wink,wink! Love from your dim sum buddy!
