The Lesson is Patience !
Challenges we have outwardly and within ourselves are great heart openers! This is my truth, opinion and experience. When I'm facing a difficult task or situation especially with others involved a prayer of patience constantly replays in my mind. Please help me be patient and please help them to be patient with me! Patience is one of my biggest flaws and what I've always prayed to have more of. You know what that mean, don't you? The more you pray for it the more opportunities will come your way to see if you're ready for it!
I have the needed skills, but sometimes I just be over it. Now that's the root problem , "I'm over it". That simple phrase holds weight and translates to I give up or I quit. There is no longer room for that behavior or mindset. I have the patience because I have the heart to extend it and the breathe to enrich it. If I didn't have those two I most certainly have the ability to work with the energy of it. Now I'm preaching to myself (but you too if ya feel me).
Someone posted a simple definition of discipline and I had to screenshot to share for later days when in need. It said "Discipline, repeatedly aiming for the target. Being diligent and consistent with what one is supposed to do for the sake of the goal. Sometimes, discipline outshines gifts and talents."
Trying my best to learn, understand, and integrate, it is imperative to learn the lesson of patience and discipline. In reality most of my past experiences were actually small hurdles, but can became so large to my emotional side from taking it personally. Something I have to be accepting, patient, and loving of is what may be simple to others is sometimes complex to me. At times I can be a slow learner to thoroughly understand it and then apply it efficiently. Then on the other hand learning certain skills or information may be second nature, it will literally be a refresher for me.
When patience is given inwardly it is also given outwardly. Loving self enough to be patient so I can love others the same way especially my children. Remember I'm still learning just like you along with everyone else who fall short in certain areas.
Patience opens the heart chakra. The heart represents compassion, acceptance, giving, receiving, inner peace, nurturing, and inner child. My inner child needed this. Do yours need it too?
