I am learning patience. This is a virtue I was definitely NOT born with, but I am picking it up a little at a time. Patience with reading "Whhhooo's That?" for the millionth time. Patience in reading my own books a paragraph at a time. Patience with getting bare-root plants and nurturing them for a couple of years into garden beauties. Patience with gradually improving the quality of things.
I am so guilty of the perfectionist trap...that if it can't be spectacular NOW, then I can't do it. There are plenty of areas that I still have to work on this. :-S That is okay. I vaguely remember a small cross-stitch sampler in my bedroom when I was just a kid...
I used to think that was a reminder for Mom and Dad. Now, I think it might be a more important reminder for me. I need to have patience with MYSELF...I am still learning.
