Patience

I like to Remind myself something ever so often:

When the bright light at the end of the tunnel starts to look fuzzy and distant, its time to blindfold yourself and enjoy the space that surrounds. For it is not important to reach the light but to engage in the experience of illuminating ones own mind.

Defines Patience,

As the ability to endure waiting, delay, or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset, or to persevere calmly when faced with difficulties.

So what is different and what is similar between our versions?

Mine is an optimistic appraisal or rather an enactment of my defense mechanism's version of 'My life is perfect and can only get better'.
Wiki defines it subjectively and in doing so asks us to look upon it as a virtue. To master it to a degree and thus surrender to its power.

And So,

When destiny takes it course and forces us to compromise, it is then when I look upon you with utmost respect and fondness.
Stay with me.. after all…

All you need is just a little Patience -GnR
