But how to describe the beauty of the cosmos...

I saw this ad today on Pinterest. We truly are living in an apocalyptic hellscape.

Like really. this is a legit product originally intended as personal weather protection but the company has pivoted their advertising to sell them as protection against Covid19. Personally, I think the worst part is it’s targeting teachers, like, ... what?! ... really!?!? .... if i was a student I’d be so scarred to see my teacher in this...

A Well of Patience

Sometimes I can feel within me a great well of patience. The ability to sit and wait, to hold onto a single thought or moment and make it endless. 

Other times I can’t seem to find that endless well, let alone a bucket to pull up my well-learned ability. Some anticipatory wishes will not be soothed.

So far, in the building of my career I have a history of patience. I have worked hard and held fast to my dedication to building a career. First as a high school student, then as a college student. Now as young professional.

I’ve changed professional jobs once already. It was a great upheaval.

And now it feels as if I dried up my internal well of patience in that first job. It was a terrible job, where I was often told to wait. Don’t do anything, don’t say anything, just wait. But I wanted to do things, to grow, to continue to build as I had been building for years in the academic systems of my youth. 

I wanted to move quickly, to put in as hard of work while in industry as I had put into my academics. But there was no work to be done. When I sought work, I was instead told to wait. To welcome complacency instead of growth.

So, now I am learning to dig the well of my patience even deeper than I have ever dug before. 

Learning to let go of the urge to rush ahead into the unknown. 

Learning instead to linger in the moments that will refill my well of patience.
