Patience is a virtue

The typical example of patience is watching a heron hunt.These large, majestic birds wade into shallow waters, wait patiently, scope the water for movement. When a fish happens to swim by, they strike with incredible speed in hopes of catching small fish. Similarly, patience can make us less reactive and help us achieve our goals with out creating anxiety and stress.

One of our best teachers for learning patience is mother nature. Some instances are:

  •  Animals and  plants follow a lifecycle
  • The birth of a baby
  • The growth of the harvest
  • The moon and the sun wait patiently for their time to shine
In the words of Lao Tzu : “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”
