patience strikes again
I learnt the art of patience this week. I learnt how not to worry and how not to get angry. Its as simple (and as hard) as just ignoring things and letting things slide. Those phrases have such negative conotations but patience isn't negative. There are so many small details that we could allow ourselves to worry over and eat away our lives. But by allowing that maybe that rude person was having a bad day rather than focusing on their rudeness then I can move on and be cheerful and not let their unhappiness become my unhappiness. This sounds like the very thing that people have been telling me for years but finally this week it all makes sense. And I'm so much happier for understanding it.
