The value of patience

It is a beautiful day and I am wishing for you a happy Monday.

Living in some respects is often comparable to farming or at best the same principles that are applied to farming can also be applied to life. The principles to be applied to both are somewhat similar which is preparation, sowing, growing, maturing and finally reaping. The same principles are followed by the farmer who grows crops or rear livestock.
There is another important thing that farmers must observe and that is knowing when to plant and what crops to plant. Agriculture is subject to weather conditions but if crops are planted out of season then there will not be a harvest to look forward to reaping.
Many persons think that it is too late to begin or they are too old to start pursuing a dream and this is a lie. life has equipped everyone with experiences and we all have thoughts and ideas so it is up to you and I to begin where we are. You and I can succeed where we are.
We should never forget however the principles of farming and like the farmer cultivate patience. The farmer does not reap a crop a week after he sows the seed nor are livestock ready for slaughter a month after birth. In a similar way you and I need to patiently watch over the seeds of ideas that we sow until the time of reaping.
