There is so much
good in the worst of us
and so much bad
in the best of us
that it does not
behove any of us
to talk about the
rest of us
(quote)
 |
The good, the bad and the ugly are in most of us, though in
different measure it is possible for a normally even-tempered, genteel and
courteous person to suddenly transformed into a short fused, uncouth savage
when provoked. When our feathers are
ruffled and our tolerance stretched beyond limits, we are thrown off guard and
the sour side of us emerges.
The uncivil part of us is constantly vying for mastery over our
emotions. When our expectations are not
met and goals are thwarted, we must try to remain calm and composed.
Misunderstandings often occur because there are some things in
life that we cannot explain. The
intrinsic problem behind our unbecoming reactions is the lack of patience. In this of fast-passed, digital age of
instant gratification and quick fixes, patience is becoming a rare
commodity. We are expected to learn to
be patience instantly, and in our hurry, we almost often miss it.

the back in us
