Patience can be squeezed to the limits. You feel the pressure on all sides, but hold on. Something good will come from it.

You may have noticed that each month I have posted a word as an affirmation. It has been an attribute one can develop that will help them live a full life. As I have posted, I have experienced.
This past month’s word has been patience.

During the month of August I have had the opportunity to practice patience. It has been stretched to limits I didn’t even know I had. Daily as I waited for things to happen, I was reminded of the character I was developing. It was not my intention to practice this. It has not been easy, but it has been fun.
I have not been waiting on a word from a doctor, or a job or some miraculous event.
It has just been everyday things. But there have been other attributes, like love.

and joy

In the beginning, I was not paying attention or making direct connections to what was happening around me and the words for each month. But as I experience more of them, it really makes me conscious of which words are chosen.
One of my favorites…

But the truth is I have loved all of them. They are a part of me and I guess my hope is that they will be a part of you too.
This month we salute those High-Flyers. There are no limits to what we can achieve!

She died in an accident in 1926.
