Patience

So often we forget that not everything can come instantly. In these recent days we have fast food, microwaves, fast cars, internet, e-mail, and the list goes on. We begin to expect that everything will come as easily as these things.

Step back and watch as events unfold. Don’t wait for things to happen, only expect that it will when it is time.

Take each minuet, hold it in its own moment, and realize it as something that will never come again. Don’t rush through your moments. Savor them. Each is like a snowflake, small, intricate, and so easily lost in the blizzard that is everyday life.

Patience is not inactivity. Patience is realizing you can not make the minuets move faster, and that you really don’t want to.
