Circle of Trust:   Practice Patience

A bit of a pep talk, mainly to myself, but also to anyone else that could relate to be more patient.  I retold a story of getting frustrated with my dad which just reminded me that I have a problem with being patient and being open to others opinions and thoughts.  I need to remember to practice patience and understanding more.
