Patience is the ballast of the soul, 
that will keep it from rolling and tumbling 
in the greatest storms.

Charles Hopkins

How do we become patient? We wait.
What do we do to wait? Nothing.

It is strange that many people find patience very trying.

I find that taking several deep breaths and saying the Serenity Prayer, grants me 'patience' ... but that took a lot of 'practice', LOL ... ... ...
