Definition - according to dictionary.com
Patience: the quality of being patient, as the bearing of provocation, annoyance, misfortune, or pain, without complaint, loss of temper, irritation, or the like.
uummmm.........
I guess it's something you're either born with or without!
In a world of delayed subways, annoying people, long lines at the grocery store check out, slow movers, fast talkers, etc, etc, how can one find enough patience to go through the day without complaining, losing ones temper, getting irritated and the like!! Give me a break dictionary.com!
Life makes you wait for so much, even when you think something is almost there...
..... it's not!
so the waiting game - ahem - the patience game begins!
We're forced to always be on the go... go go go!!! That when something comes up where we have to wait, we have no patience!
We're a world of instant gratification!
Instant coffee, instant ATMS, instant blah blah blahs......
I once read in a book.... "you pray for patience, and God will not give you any, he will however give you the opportunity to be patient...." and this is how we're suppose to learn?
Is God also to blame for instant coffee?
