∞ patience? i want it right now! ∞

Posted: Wed, Mar 9, 2005 05:21:32 AM

well the reading expressed what i am feeling right now -- a severe lack of patience -- for the world around me (i pity the customer service rep who will be picking up my call in the next 20 minutes) and patience for myself. for some reason this morning all i want is everything and i want it right now! i am now choosing to write this blog, breathe and ask GOD to walk through this day with me before i chew someone‘s head off and vomit down their throat.
so now that is off my chest, i actually have a little smirk on my face because i can now see how ridiculous the whole thing is.
the world is as it is, and i am progressing forward with my day and probably will have a good day as a result.
yes i know that i can blow things way out of proportion, and yes i can be less than spiritual in my behaviors and yes i can start my day over and allow myself the freedom to grow.
And although I may not be getting what i want as fast as i want it, I will tolerate that this is the way it is supposed to be and perhaps allow tolerance to grow into acceptance.

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

2) There is an originating and all-comprehending (principle) in my
words, and an authoritative law for the things (which I enforce).
It is because they do not know these, that men do not know me.
