Character is formed from the repeated choice of thoughts and action. Make the right choice - You shall have a firm and noble character. Out of purity and silence come words of power. To be patient means to suffer something that hinders or hurts us, and still retain our self-composure. How many difficulties, with their consequent unpleasantness and discord, could be smoothed over and almost entirely eliminated by patience.
Patience always elevates and strengthens our character.
We need it not only with others but also with ourselves. We often fail for lack of perseverance in our efforts. We leave our work half done in our impatience. Every job demands its quota of efforts. Never give up too soon.
