Man if it grew on trees, we’d have world peace, lower rates of crime and divorce, and a stable financial situation. But that’s not how this game was designed. It was created by a Master Architect to build within us the structure and fortitude needed to withstand global and universal shifts, no matter how many lifetimes it takes.
I’ve always been faced with this test of patience. Maybe it’s my planetary make-up of Mars/Saturn/Mars (ya think!?). It usually manifests through relationships, however, it’s reared it's head in my career and life path as well. I like to use humor to negate my hard life lessons, man but this one is hard to laugh at sometimes. It seems easier to yell and scream at ya know, so that’s when I know its time to work. The Great Work that is!
And why is it that it’s easier to be patient with people that aren’t so close to us than someone we love or have history with? Is it because an acquaintance has less history, doesn’t know our weak spots or us theirs? But what about the guy/girl that cuts us off in traffic or bumps us in line at the store without a word, I still wanna shake the crap out of them ya know? But what does that say about me and what if I’m that guy in traffic or at the store needing a good shaking?
When I’m ready to scorch the Earth with fire and brimstone, I remember the saying, “If you can’t see God in All, you can’t see God at All.” Crap!!! Now have I perfected my patience, uh….not as of yet, however, my conscious awareness grows each time I can remember to be grateful for breath and the moment. That I have the opportunity to be able to learn from someone that the world won’t end if I don’t get what I want, when I want it. That it’s actually a blessing in disguise that’s preparing me for bigger and better things. When I can remember that everybody has bad days and isn’t always aware of the unseen influences effecting everything in creation, I’m free to be the change, the divine contrast. Through patience I’m a powerful lover, father, listener, and contribution to my community. All because I took time to breath, consider, and forgive. Patience is a virtue that I’m constantly striving to harmonize because I know it’s the way to greater love and abundance. I just wish it would hurry up and harmonize for God’s sake!!!:)
