PATIENCE

Patience is being comfortable enough within yourself to trust that when it is time for things to come together in any given situation, it is that you will recognize it, you will be put on notice, you will be shown the way. Patience isn’t attempting to find the right way to make things work. Patience is being energetically open so that when the key is put in the lock, and you are actually shown the next step, you will recognize “this is the next step”, and you will be able to take it.
Patience from an intellectual point of view can give you a headache, it can give you a pain across the back of your neck and shoulders, it can cause discomfort anywhere in the physical body because patience requires that you be still, not that you do nothing but that you are poised so as the time comes for things to come together you actually can recognize it’s time.
Patience is the willingness to let the natural course of things to flow. If you are trying to be patient, if you need to be patient, if patience is wearing thin, then the patience isn’t quite what you wanted it to be. The more patience you allow in your life, the more you practice patience, the more that you will find patience is very comfortable, it isn’t a lack of accomplishment, it’s a different way of accomplishment, it’s a way that can bring answers that the logical mind would totally overlook in its haste to get things moving. So to really know that patience is a virtue, and making things happen quickly is in many ways a device tha the ego has created that prevents things from happening because  if there’s impatience, there’s a need for things to go faster, then there really energetically is a pushing back against the flow of what you’re looking for to come to you.
Patience feels good.
Impatience on the other hand can be quite challenging.
Believing that you’re being patient, when you just can’t wait for things to go a certain way, and a lot of times that will actually be a cue that you are being impatient, that you just don’t want to wait.
To really feel, and as you are willing to feel you can actually begin to experience deeper levels of exactly what patience feels like, what it brings you, what it gives you, what it shows you.
It really is not a nebulous concept, it’s actually a very powerful standard to live by.
So to discover patience and as you are seeking to find what patience really is you may find that the ego mind gets very impatient about you looking for patience, because if nothing else the ego mind functions in control. And a lot of the impatience of these times is simply that the ego doesn’t want people to take the time to really sort the energies out, because in the process they might begin to notice how the ego creates limitation.
