my patience

Patience is the art of concealing your impatience.
Guy Kawasaki

I came across this quote today and I felt relieved!
For as much as I could be patient, am too, impatient.

Nonetheless, I've noticed that I am very patient with "SERIOUS" matters and very impatient with "TRIVIAL" ones.

Yet, today I feel this quote expressing well my kind of Patience.

A friend once told me that she admires my degree of forbearance. Looking back at my actions or reactions, I was quite dazzled myself. My impatience must have been so high for me to display anything but a huge patience. Because I am a strong believer in Time and I hate to offend others. May be that is why letting out my impatience would usually be my last resort. Mostly because nothing would have mattered to me anymore. Surely, when careless about the people and the situation, one is prone to be impatient.
I don't really know if that is good but I very well know that patience is a virtue and not everyone is capable of being it.

Sometimes I see patience as a discipline of one's soul...It's a good-natured tolerance. It reflects one's inner strengths.

I also think that where we evolve, the education we get and the environment we grow up in influence or build up our patience.
As far as I am concerned, My God, My Parents, My teachers, My neighbours and My friends always promoted patience.
So yes, I feel bad when I get impatient. I feel worse when I conceal it. Ironically, I feel peace when I eventually don't show it.
To be patient is a process that requires humongous energy, self composition and control. It translates of a good will.
