something i learned from kids, babies. is patience. i have unlimited patience when it comes to four year olds. i didnt before, but now i do. in fact, i especially love the difficult kids. theyre more interesting, and its more rewarding when your patience pays off and they finally love you and want to play play dough.
so ive been on this big patience kick lately. i know it works. but i cant seem to apply it to....not-kids. its so easy to be unfailingly nice to babies. if i could apply the same patience i put towards a strong willed four year old towards..well, everyone and everything, i know it would have some amazing results. if i could even just be patient with myself, that would be good. just sit through everything. i read "what can't be cured must be endured, time and patience will make it easy." and its probably true, i cant think of anything in my life that time hasnt made easy. you can get used to almost anything if you put up with it long enough. i want to train my brain to respond nicely to everything.
