Patience-the ability to put our desires on hold for a time-is a precious and rare virtue. We want what we want, and we want it now.

Indeed, patience is a purifying process that refines understanding, deepens happiness, focuses action, and offers hope for peace.

You do not like the bumps, but you like the patience, and if you want the patience, you will have to take the bumps. And what is patience but experience?
