Patience

I had to chuckle a bit during the recovery meeting I attended today.  The topic was “patience” and during the meeting, I reflected on the fact that several years ago I would lose patience with people who walked or talked slowly.  At the present time the only people who walk more slowly than me are the very old or disabled and I don’t know anyone who talks slower than I do.  I used to be impatient much of the time, and did not enjoy the feeling.  My body has since taught me patience and I am more at peace as a result.
