“the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble or suffering without getting angry or upset”
Easy, right? 2020 brought many obstacles to our expectations of what is acceptable.
We schedule when to go to the grocery store, order more online, can’t enjoy eating in our favorite restaurants or going to the movies.
Worse, we can’t visit our senior friends and relatives. Waving through a window doesn’t cut it!
This seems inhumane and impersonal, which it is! Losing patience doesn’t help.
So, 2020 life demands creativity. We can make the changes required for safety.
Patience is one of the virtues. Practice it. Smile even when you don’t feel like it.
Chat with strangers (they can tell if you are smiling behind your mask).
