Patience

Check out this little fellow waiting to catch this farm cat. He knows he has to sit and wait for that cat to come to him. How does he know this?He watched two ladies try to catch some of the kittens, the two ladies being his Mom and I. Of course we could get them for him, after all we can do anything in his eyes....Not anymore! he told us we were crazy and had done nothing but scare them. Talk about ungrateful...the energy it took even trying, well one day he will appreciate us more. So here he sat for a couple of days to get his cat. It was actually very inspiring to see him so determined to reach his goal. Finally the cat did come and they were great friends for the rest of the visit. I think sometimes we forget to be patient and have faith that all good things shall come to us. For the little boy, it was his cat. For myself it is to live within my restrictions. If everything in life were easy...it really would not be living. Sometimes hardships are blessings....we just have to see things from all angles. Through the eyes of a child, it is very simple. It beats the alternative. Have a great day.
