The value of patience

I am waiting.  It seems like I'm always waiting.  Waiting for the weather to warm up.  Waiting to call my dad so that I can avoid speaking to anyone but my dad.  Waiting for my doctor to call me with lab results.  I have used the phrase "Patience is a Virtue" so many times with so many children but now when I need to apply it to myself, I find myself completely incapable of being patient. 


I have to imagine that the value of patience comes from the feelings of dread and stress that one can save themselves from if only one can actually be patient. 


I guess in the meantime, I'll work on that patience bit some more.
