PATIENCE:


How frustrating it can be to want to finally have
something, or to move forward, and then not have
it happen. How irritating to have someone tell us
to wait while we're in the midst of anxiety,
frustration, and inaction.

Do not confuse the suggestion to be patient with
the old rule about not having feelings.

Being patient does not mean we go through the
sometimes grueling process of life and recovery
without having feelings! Feel the frustration. Feel
the impatience. Get as angry as you need to about
not having your needs met.

Controlling our feelings will not control the process!

We find patience by surrendering to our feelings.
Patience cannot be forced. It is a gift, one that closely
follows acceptance and gratitude.
