Bending down to look for something in the refrigerator my gaze fell on the egg carton. Hmm that’s odd I thought. Not everyday that food items have quotes written on them. So of course I had to pay attention. “Adopt the pace of nature; her secret is patience.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Patience. It’s golden just like the yoke of an egg. Patience. The time it takes for an egg to develop and become a baby chick. Patience. For things to come to fruition. Patience.

Taking in each moment. I don’t have Patience but I am praying for it….I don’t like how learning this trait usually goes…
