Patience

I always thought of myself as a patient individual.  I wait when the time is right and ready.  I wait for things to be at its best to take action.  But not today.  Not lately.  I have been patient all through out my working career.  I waited for things to fall into place.  I waited for my break.

It came, by the way.  It came when I wasn’t really expecting it.  The breaks, I mean.  They came like a landslide.  And then it plateued.  There was stillness.  A year after, the stillness was stirred with controversy with which I found myself so “into” it so to speak.  I had to move otherwise I would have broken down.

When I moved, it reached a sort of peak (or so I think).  Then again the stillness.

Now, I think I am ready to move forward.  To where, what, I actually do not know yet.  I am weighing my options.  I’d like to play it safe.  I have all to gain and everything to lose.

Patience.
