This is sort of a post script for my "I'm In This for the Long Haul" blog. I was thinking about it after I posted.
Everything in my life right now lends itself to cultivating patience. Everything.
Patience for New York.
Waiting for my hair to grow out (this is hard for a Leo).
Slowly paying down my big credit card and student loan.
Watching my savings account grow...slowly but surely.
Waiting to buy certain things (only when I have the funds).
Every time I get a paycheck I square away the bills...budget out this and that...put money on the card and in savings...and then I have to wait until the next payday. Fingers drumming on my desk.
Waiting for the new season of True Blood to start :)
Researching and waiting to find what my next course of action will be for Scotland. This is something I cannot rush because I want to make sure to align myself with where I'm supposed to be, not just jump into something for the sake of jumping.
Patience is a very hard won ability for me. I have been known as an "I want what I want when I want it" kind of gal. And that has rarely served me well.
With all this patience building comes a lot of thinking, assessing and changing of ideas, which is sort of exciting to tell the truth. I've been brain-storming my life. Since I'm in a bit of a waiting period right now, why not scout out the possibilities?
I'm trying to learn how to listen...then follow...then listen...then follow. It's quite a lesson in patience. Especially during the days I don't seem to hear anything.
