REMEMBERING & ALIGNING WITH ‘PATIENCE’
Patience is a grand quality. Unfortunately, In this busy world we have stopped to exercise this grand quality called patience.
The mind is always in a hurry. We have become addicted to “instant everything” from instant coffee, instant painkillers, to instant answers from the internet, everything is supplied but nothing satisfies. Humanity is still searching, searching for that meaning, that missing spirit in life.
If we choose to slow down, to relax in the moment and observe patiently, we will be amazed by the grand enlightening experience and wisdom each moment brings. Life is never boring, life is a vast journey, a beautiful mystery. And this beauty can be unfolded with complete satisfaction only by patience.
The magic and miracle in a child’s laughter, a hug from a friend, the blossoming of wild flowers on the edge of the roadway, the grand experience of cooking for yourself and your loved ones by pouring your conscious presence of gratitude, hugging a huge tree, feeling the gentle touch of the breeze on a hot summer day, looking into the eyes of a stranger and blessing from the heart, holding the hand of a loved one, sitting silently under the vast expanse of a starry night sky, asking a question and searching for an answer within the heart and allowing for the experience to unfold, sitting with pain and communicating within the body for answers and allowing the body to show us the wisdom…..the list goes on and on. Every moment of life is magical and precious if we are able to be patient enough to be present in the moment.
It is imperative that we choose to exercise patience every moment, for the journey of life is timeless and full of wisdom. If we live in a hurry we will be at a loss and will keep on searching and the search can never be satisfied.
Patience is not being passive, patience is being very alert to life, it is being in excited anticipation of what the next moment brings. Patience is wisdom, it is waiting for life with great love, it is a great trust towards the Divine.
Let us choose to anchor patience and harvest the immense wisdom life brings our way. Let us stop searching for instant answers on the outside and patiently learn to go within and realize the great wisdom we have brought with us into this Planet. We are the wisdom keepers, it is time to wake up!
Blessings!
