PATIENCE IS INDEED A VIRTUE
patience: my most favorite virtue since this has been biggest trial in life. did you know that it irritates me when the person walking in front of me is walking slowly? that quite a lot number of people since they say i walk really fast. did you know that since i value my personal space very much, i really do not like being squished in the mrt especially if i feel that the people around me are getting insensitive of staying in their own space. did you know that i talk to cars while driving especially if the drivers running them are not keen on the road? and the worst fact of all is did you know that the most frequent recipients of my impatience are my loved ones? i know, i'm so mean! my mom, my dad, my sister, this little co-legionary that i has been very stubborn,... petty things that can be bypassed but my temper at times creates a big fuzz.
this season, i was planning to improve this. i kept saying the word lent while commuting. i pray on the road and close my eyes so as not to be distracted with what's happening around me. and at home, i try to really control my temper. as in!
today was another test. i was really looking forward to the salary adjustment since i got confirmed this month. after having lunch with workmates in makati (yes, far from pasay :P ) because of bonus week, i saw my payslip and found the same salary that i had last pay period. we're not really sure if the form that compensation forwards to admin payroll got lost. the point of the story is learn to wait phi! i know this is nothing compared to finding mr right (which most loved ones are more excited than i am), finishing my master's and aiming at a new career goal, or any other plan that i should be dwelling or be bothered about. there is always a payroll rollback. it will be given after some time. thus, be patient. as what i've constantly reminding myself these days, God know my needs. i just let Him rule over my life for my wants might not be my needs anyway.
there, i just had to let it out :)
