The World Needs Patience
Where would you be
If you were never spoken to with patience
What does impatience do
It creates mistrust and hostility
The more you are patient
The more someone can be themselves
The more they are themselves
The more they live in reality
Once someone creates a false reality
It is very difficult to be patient with them
This is the difficulty
This is the true test
The mind
Creates alternate realities
The mind does this
To keep you safe from harm
Is this always advantageous to the person
No, of course not
A simple temporary non-reality
Can help you get through a difficult moment
If
It is only temporary
If you begin to practice the non-reality
Then it begins to take hold
A temporary fix
Becomes a permanent change in you
Permanent
But also something that can be changed too
You live your false reality
As your truth
You are so lost in your own lies
You start to forget who you are
You live with a practiced voice
You live with a practiced walk
Others may fear you
Because you are not true to yourself
Others may look up to you
But it is something that cannot maintain itself
Actors practice
For a pretend story
Lawyers practice
To prepare to persuade others
Government officials practice
To convince others to join
Where is your mind
What do you believe in
Do you believe
In the simple truths in life
Or are you entertained
By the false identities of others and yourself
In an age
Where everything can be seen by all instantly
There are more false identities
Then ever before
Why does the mind seek poor impulse and control
Over stability and building communities
Why does the mind seek mindless entertainment
Over learning and exploring
Your mind
Is controlled by you
If you choose to command
Your mind
Your life is lived as your Truth
If you choose to be your Truth
