It is a mystery, that somehow the patience department has gotten compartmentalized.

We may have patience for teaching kids, but not for threading a needle ... patience to cook for 20 guests, + none left to talk to them ... patience to read a novel, but none for any learning curve...

I’m too impatient to do it right, but too stubborn not to have it be perfect. -kb.

    Har! My nickname (by those who know) is "Miss Patience" (which demonstrates exactly how much I actually have. Of course, I've mellowed a lot as I've gotten older. Fun post. And thought-provoking.

    That is true! I can sit and work on a problem for hours and never give up until I figure it out, but don't have patience when it comes to waiting on something.

    great observation.... sometimes patience is highly over rated and sometimes life is simply miserable without it!
