P = Patience pays great dividends. Good things come to those who wait. In India we have a saying
that roughly translates to "the fruits of patience are sweet".
A = Patience does not mean we stop and stand still. Act while you wait. Carry on living as counting
the hours, minutes and days won't bring it to you any faster.
T = Patience has no concept of time. Things will happen when they are meant to.
I = Patience is at odds with instantaneous. We want everything to occur now. Sometimes this is
not a good thing. Patience gives us time to think and be sure or make tweaks.
E = Patience is a test of endurance. We often give up and fall back into old patterns or abandon
the road we're on because it takes too long. Most times the "gift" is just around the corner if
only we had the patience to take the next turn.
N = Patience can be learned by taking a lesson from nature. The caterpillar must rest in it's cocoon
for a period of time until it is ready to emerge as a butterfly. Transformations take time.
C = Patience teaches us to have courage. Courage to walk alone while we wait for love to arrive or
to endure hardship while we search for a job.
E = Patience is a cultivated virtue, it is learned over the course of time through experience. It is
probably one of the hardest to master.
Warm Regards
