Patience

"Patience is a virtue" as it is said.

Well, true indeed. I am an advocate of this principle, basically because I do believe that in this life things are hard and never easy. Come to think of it, if things were that easy do you think all of us will prosper? I doubt.

The moment I decided to live with my aunt and her family I told myself that this will not be as easy as it looks like, especially knowing the fact that she (my aunt) is strict. Well what can I do, I got nothing to send me to school. The first few months of my stay was indeed a challenge which I think I could not surpass. I get to wash dishes, clean the house and look after my cousins. These chores are so hard for me during the first time. I am not used to this kind of living. But luckily I have adjusted already.

Back then, I always get what I want with just a snap but fate was not that good for me and my family, we lost everything. That was the chapter of my life which I enjoyed and I regret some part of it. But what else is new? Life is comprised of a never ending UPs and DOWNs. Now I am facing the new chapter of my life bringing with me the principle "patience is a virtue".

If there is one great thing I can impart o people it would not be the knowledge that I have acquired in the for walls of the classroom but rather the experience I had that taught me to strive and be patient. If in my previous years in this world, I had lived life in a I will call instant life, I now regret it. With the lesson I got from that snap life I will live life the way it should be. A life lived for others and a life facing challenges with patience. With this chapter of my unusual life I now know that patience takes a person to places and helps break the horizon.

Be patient and life will be smooth...,
