Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Patience is a tricky virtue for me to conquer. Lord knows I have tried my best but I am not very patient. I am always jumping ahead and then the universe must reel me back in.
"Patience", it whispers.
Do you have trouble with being patient, too? What do you do to slow down and be patient?
I go for a walk. I look at the beautiful trees around me changing color and I smile. The leaves are changing color and the trees are red, orange, green, yellow and pink. It's like a gorgeous painting. My heart and mind are filled with wonder.
Then it dawns on me, my ah ha moment. The trees have to be filled with patience. They have to wait six long months for their leaves to change color.
We can learn a lot from these trees. Life is filled with cycles and we should stand tall and be patient.
No matter what is going on in your life, you have to be patient. The glory of life will be revealed in beautiful splendor... you just have to embrace patience!
