There's an old saying that I love. It says something like - you can't yank on a flower to make it grow quicker.
How amazing is that?
Developing true patience must be one of the toughest things to have. But without patience, we don't give ourselves the real opportunity to see things fully through. Additionally, there are numerous things in this world that call for our patience and will only develop when we actually bring it into our lives. Sometimes there's half finished business we've got with someone or we are just giving something the time and space to grow and develop. Think about all of your dreams. Often, our dreams don't happen because we truly aren't yet the person who can really attain them. In reality that's practically always the case. We are not getting what we'd like so we can grow into the type of person we need to be to accomplish our grandest desires.
Patience is the key to granting our future to unfold in front of us without our projections onto it. Patience, is the facility to stay absolutely present in the time given to us while not trying to live forward.
This is hard. Really hard.
Most of the time we wish to make things turn out precisely in the way in which we see them in our mind. The real problem with this is that we are trying to control a time and place that is truly wild and free. Oftentimes, the future unfolds in a completely different set of methods than what we expected it to be. This isn't always always a horrible thing though. Rather, this can be a unreserved and real gift giving us what we actually needed instead of what we wanted. Wouldn't you rather just live in that place - a place of complete possibility and opportunity?
When we let go of what we think should happen in our lives we make allowance for life to really surprise us.
Develop some patience. Everything will come to you in the appropriate time.
