I have a little victory to share. I’ve spent this week practicing the patience and Trust realization that I had last weekend, and I am pleased to report that it has totally panned out for me. In recent weeks, I have found a new level of steadiness and consistency in my life. This past week

I wouldn’t call myself an impulsive person, but patience doesn’t come very easily to me.

The “poor me” complex is so vast and so prevalent in our thought system, that it is most often taken for granted altogether.

When I was a child, I had a vague sense that I was going to be “great” one day. As I grew up, and my desire to escape my real life increased, my sense of “one day” increased in my mind as well. “One day” I would be free to make my own decisions. “One
