If you can wait..

Impatience, I’ve realized, is my worst trait

I desperately need to learn how to wait

*

To wait patiently for someone to finish what they’re saying

To resist the urge to interrupt, even if undivided attention I’m not paying

Is something at which better I need to get

Lack of patience has often caused me regret..

*

To take a deep breath when I’m getting late

To keep my calm when I can do nothing but wait

To distract myself without letting my anxiety spiral out of control

To not let a long wait take on my emotional stability a toll..

*

Finally the lesson from Bhagavad Gita etched in my mind

To keep doing my part patiently and not be inclined

To think about the fruits of my labor at all-

To cultivate that kind of patience is an order tall..
