Being Patient

I used to think that being patient was all about the stillness of the mind, or as matter of fact, the stillness of the body, but on the last couple of months that I’ve been working as a high school teacher I’ve come to the realization that being patient always involves sacrifice.

Weather it is of our own pretentions or of our ever-hungry ego, the idea of being patient involves the concept of letting go of one self and thus being able to help others. And it definitively is much more easily said than done, but in this time I’ve come to understand that the gentleness of those actions towards others or the general tolerance you give to your surroundings is a fundamental pillar to our character and ultimately an expression of love. I also believe that this is not a lesson that you learn once in a lifetime, for me it’s as continuous as breathing. Buddha might help though.
