Patience....


I have a bad habit of wanting things when I want them. I remember over 10years ago when I wanted my 1st Gucci bag. I was still young, without kids and I would easily spend $300-$500 dollars on a bag no questions asked. But for some reason, the bag I wanted was extremely out of my price range. So I kept waiting and watching. One evening while out shopping with my Bestie, we stopped at Copley Place and casually walked in the Gucci Store. I glanced at the sale wall and my bag was there. Originally $699 and I got it for $324 with tax. 

I didn't understand it then but today in this moment I truly do. Patience is a virtue that I've lacked for most of my life. I've lived in a lot of "Moments" but now that I'm older I long for more than just moments. 

There's a few things going on in my life( not bad) where I'm truly learning the importance of just being Patient. I've been toying with changing the structure of my business because I'm ready to embark on the next phase of my life. Being a Business Owner has had its wins and losses and I've grown to appreciate it all. It's made me stronger and wiser. I'm a more level headed thinker and I think for the future and not just right now. I'm learning that, value is placed at how hard you're willing to work now, so that your later will be worry-Less. 

Today lovies, Patience is my friend. It's a tough friend but it's teaching me that, when you rush you miss the beauty in the moment. Today, let's indulge in the small moments that so many people rush through. We have to have enough control over our emotions to understand that if we just hold out and take our time, we will see the flowers bloom. I want my flowers to bloom and today, Patience I give you full control! 

Signed, 
Patiently Waiting...
