Weekly Mantra: Patience

pa·tience
[pey-shuhns]


–noun
1. the quality of being patient, as the bearing of provocation,
annoyance, misfortune, or pain, without complaint, loss of temper,
irritation, or the like.
2. an ability or willingness to suppress restlessness or annoyance
when confronted with delay: to have patience with a slow learner.
3. quiet, steady perseverance; even-tempered care; diligence: to work
with patience.



I could debate above the top definition or the one located below...


pa·tience
[pey-shuhns]

–noun
1. Another word for lazy
2. Something Macy lacks.


Regardless of which definition is true patience is something everyone must practice in life... this will be my mantra for the week.
