Power
of Patience
In this vast world, there is no one
who does not have a problem, big or small. There is no place where there is no
problem except the grave. Problems are the proof of life. We have to learn the
art of coping with the problems patiently. How poor we are without patience!
Patience is the strength of the soul.
It is the courage to bear, tolerate and endure even in the worst circumstances.
It is the parachute which can land us safely in case of air crash. It is the
panacea to fight all adversities and hardships, calamities and misfortunes.
“Patience is not about how long someone can wait. It is about how well he
behaves while he waits.” Even big trees are uprooted in the wild wind. Grasses,
which bow down and lie close to the ground, survive. Dark clouds do not hover
over the sky forever. All lean patches pass. All sorry states and situations
can be surmounted. Tough times don’t last. Tough people do. All that you need
is infinite patience in your heart.
You cannot get a full grown baby
before nine months. A certain period of gestation and incubation is needed for
the embryo of an idea to grow and mature. People have the passion to start but
not the patience to finish. To begin a thing is one thing. But to stay on and
continue it till the end is another thing. Most of the failures in the world
are the result of such half-hearted adventures. Those, who don’t quit and wait
till the end, win the marathon race of life. Milton said: “They also serve who
only stand and wait.” So, park your car in the parking zone of patience and
wait for the right time to come.
Thank you sir, this blog helped me understand that if we keep patience, many of the problems we face will someday or the other.. go away. I have always had a lack of patience, I still have, and that very thing has caused me more problems than before.
