I've become incredibly impatient lately. It's become too hard for me to keep my cool in a world that's gone so insane, and with so many people who refuse to recognize it. They've been turned into lemmings.
@PhoenixPhail damn right about the world being craxy out there overwhelming

Patient rather than accepting. Acceptance often to me offers the idea of accepting things we shouldnβt while we should ask for more. While patience gives the time to find real understanding instead of blind acceptance.
@Rilyn I meant more, write your emotions for yourself. You can't wait for those you want response from to see you. It's beautiful when they do, but sadly and tragically, often this is not the world we hope. You still have a voice, I know strong and very capable of writing, and sometimes it takes patience waiting to know these things and then sadly self acceptance when things are lost upon the way we hoped...
@SW-User I write a lot. Too much even. At least its worth the angst and buidup but for me its a bit sad to see my mind in such darkness. I should be at bare minimum content but Im not.

@Rilyn It's rare you meet a writer beholding content. But if you tried to stop writing, would you feel content? You are just asking for more, and we often write what we need in our hearts need in desire. My bet, you would feel your voice taken from you, and you'd never find an ounce of content.. Some of us are just born into chaos and torment. Then we use our voice to try and see what our writings teach us.
Initially patient and then I accept. Thereβs a peace in accepting something wonβt change. Thereβs a situation in my life now where I feel that is happening
I can be patient, and I will do my best to change what is a wrong to a right and I will not give that up. But there are certain things like taxes and death that we can't beat or change and can only accept them.
One of the best questions I ever heard of . It's so good I can't even answer it myself for myself. The question for both are very close with both answers . It's a sign that your after coming very far with your spiritual life through suffering π₯°π₯°π₯°
@TallMtnMedic I am trying though, to be more patient and understanding with some people. Just the ones that truely care about me. This is a new thing for me, so wish me luck.
A mix of both but not necessarily accepting of all situations. If I have some ounce of control I will change it. I'm rather stubborn and like things being a certain way
I have the answer to my best ability. When your patient ( your in pain ) When your accepting situations ( you don't want to deal with the pain) That's my best answer π
@Rilyn it's alright. Sometimes that is also necessary until you are ready to see it in a different light.

@Rilyn I'd also like to clarify 'acceptance' based on responses here. Acceptance to me isn't adhering to others or becoming a doormat to otjers. It is acknowledging without a need to change someone or something that differences exist and I may be able to accept these either from within my space or from a distance. I do not compromise on my self worth.
I accept everything as it is. One of the rules of my philosophy you see. I am patient to somethings... Not patient to a lot of things too!!!
example, it shouldn't take five goddamn days to reply to a work email. I'm officially calling that a breakdown in process and ending it there. :3 and I don't look back ^^
