Toggling with patience and patience
Due to the tenacity of my work schedule, I rarely find the time to arrange my thoughts and think things through for myself. And when I say ‘things’ - I mean to say life in general. I need a good relieving breather where I can truly say, without having to convince myself, that I am mentally, emotionally and physically in check.
I have had emotional turmoils over the past weeks from having to deal, or the lack thereof, with people yelling in emotional outburst at home. Because of such nonsense clouding my judgement, I have most embarrassingly failed to win the trophy of patience. I have struggled with it for a while. But now, I am beginning to re-understand that even though patience is a hard brick to crack, it will actually save me from being too stressed over nonsensical things.
In the end, I have to realize that I only need to focus on the things that matter. No matter how impossible it may sound, my life should not be bothered with things that do not really matter. As in, I should not allow myself to be stressed over minute things that I will no longer remember on my deathbed. My dad told me that our stress level depends on how we react to things. If we choose to react in a subtle and patient manner, we would not turn out to be too stressed over something that has happened.
Oh patience, you hard to get bitch. But, to hell with that because I need you in my life. So, I’m not ever ditching you as I intend to live a life of kindness and free of stress.
