Patience is a virtue...

Patience is the ability to endure waiting, delay, or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset, or to persevere calmly when faced with difficulties.

I'm not really a patient person, especially with regards to late comers (of course with the exception of a friend who "always" comes late)...

Currently I'm waiting for something to happen. Something extravagant yet ambitious..

As the days go by after my return from my trip, it seems that I'm getting kinda upset. Until now, I haven't had the opportunity to grasp that thing...

Everyday, I pray to God, to ask for this virtue and the peace of mind to go about the everyday things that have been bothering my head... and yet, I could say that I'm still impatient...

With this, I've just remembered something. In the movie Evan Almighty, God, appears to Evan's wife as a waiter at a diner. He tells her that God doesn't give things, he gives the opportunity to get things. For example, God doesn't give a family togetherness, he gives the opportunity for families to be together.

This line had hit me big time. Maybe this message serves a reminder for me...

Maybe God is at present giving me the opportunity to be patient.

Anyways, life goes on. I'll still ask Him for his guidance. I'll still depend on His mercy everyday, and hope everything goes well.

I believe that in His time, Everything will be Perfect...
