Patience can mean many things to many people, but people mostly think of patience as a “difficult to apply” virtue. Patience can mean endurance, which is only good when used without suffering. It can mean restraint under pressure. It can prevent you from making hasty decisions. Patience is needed when a desire you are yearning for takes longer than you would like it to. Doing 'nothing' or 'waiting for the correct moment' can be the most difficult thing to do. But jumping to conclusions, or acting out of fear of losing something, or fear of missing the boat, will have more unpleasant consequences.
Patience is a virtue they say, but “Ah, patience, where art thou?”
Why be patient? Well, patience is true Strength. A mental conviction, the knowing that all will work out perfectly if one allows Universal Law to work the way it works.
When we are busy running around, rushing from one thing to another, we will be missing out on life. Constantly wanting more instead of letting things unfold is detrimental to the soul, it depletes the natural harmony we otherwise would experience.
Patience is a skill; one that needs practice. Especially in our fast-paced world, where no one wants to wait for anything anymore, everything is automated and available at the push of a button. But good things take while, as the old saying goes. Patience shows inner strength, sticking to what we know, trusting the Allness of Good, yes- patience is true Power.
“Patience is not passive; on the contrary, it is active; it is concentrated strength.” ~Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton~
