Some have it more than others, It is something that we learn from the time we are born. And it is learned in so many situations through life we get better at it hopefully through time and life's lessons. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, and that we are given lessons to grow from.
I, even now as an adult have had my patience tested and some of us are more tolerant than others.
I feel that it is up to us to react, or to step back from a situation that we are in to see the meaning of what is to be... And not everyone can see this test at the time but if we can excercise this more often than not? The outcome can be better.
In a situation that we are powerless in, sometimes that is ALL we can do ... Is to be patient and in my life , and a lesson I have just learned it was beneficial for me and turned out better than I ever could have dreamed.
At times we want to give up, quit and walk away and we don't is when we are pleasantly surprised. I have been pleasantly surprised and I couldn't be happier. I am willing to continue learning and am not afraid to say at almost 50, that I am still a student of life and will continue to welcome a learning experience..
