“I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away with fear.”
-Rosa Parks

“Say to your self . . .

Fun now, doesn’t matter

Fun now, doesn’t matter

Fun now, doesn’t matter

Life is good now, fun now, doesn’t matter”

~Abraham Hicks

Since patience or tolerance comes from an ability to remain steadfast, to avoid being overwhelmed by adverse situations or conditions, we should not see patience as a sign of weakness or giving in, but rather as a sign of strength. Responding to a trying situation with patience and tolerance rather than reacting with anger and hatred involves active restraint, which arises from a strong, self-disciplined mind.

“Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far
one can go.”

-T. S. Eliot
