I don't know that I would be characterized as a patient person, and that is very evident at this point in time. All the inconvenience caused by my recovery from shoulder surgery is pushing me over the edge. Here I am, at 2:00 in the morning, sitting at the computer because I can't sleep and I am uncomfortable, writing about my struggles in hopes that it will somehow cause me to find the patience to endure what seems to be an endless trek back to normalcy. (Speaking of endless, how about that previous sentence....)
Perhaps I am looking at this in the wrong way. It seems we are always waiting for something in our lives...waiting to finish school, waiting to retire, waiting for the weekend, on and on. Perhaps too often we forget that life is a journey and not a destination. As I am patiently working through daily life, I need to pay attention to what I can learn about myself and others each step of the way.
You are super true about the part that we think its a destination! I have never thought about it like that... Life is a journey (a crazy one at that) and its a miracle ....I have just recently had a death in the family and its amazing all she took the time to do in her life! She lived in the moment! So im happy that she has gone to a better place! =)
