Most of our folly arise from our reactions. GOD just puts us in a situation and zooms us with a remote. At that instant, our emotions are so tight that we are bound to perform a remoted-reaction. Its is the easiest thing to use the remote. But it is tough to restrain oneself from using it. The strength required to restrain oneself is huge and that is patience.
So should we all stop giving our reactions? No. Restrain that instant. Soon the cloud will clear and you will be hear your inner voice ask you to take action and not a reaction.
The sad thing is that we can learn this only by falling flat a number of times. But that is called experience, my friend.
