Patience is a virtue.
Right now we are all going through a new and unexpected situation. We are being asked to be flexible and adjust to the many changes that are being made to our daily lives. This can be stressful and difficult for us and the people around us as well. Not knowing what to expect can be scary. Some of us will have an easy time accepting these changes and some of us will have a harder time.
At times like these it is important that we have patience with others and also with ourselves. Patience is the ability to wait calmly for something to happen. We can be patient as we wait in line. We can be patient as we wait for our turn. We can be patient with our parents as we wait for them to finish a conversation so that we can ask them something. We can be patient with our friends as we wait for our turn during a game. And we can be patient with ourselves as we practice to get better at a new skill like reading, doing math, or playing a sport.
Be kind to each other and yourself; a little kindness and patience will make all the difference as we go through this together.
