Practicing the Virtue of Patience We want what we want when we want it.

Wouldn’t it be fun to return to a time when life was easy and carefree? We’d all sit on our front porches and sip lemonade and talk with the neighbors. Rush hours would be a thing of the past.

Here are a few tips for slowing down and learning to be patient:

-Let someone go ahead of you in line.

-Don’t complain when you don’t get your own way.

-Don’t look at your watch when an appointment is running overdue and don’t get irritated!

Try practicing one for 21 days. Form a new habit. 2020 is on the way.
