Patience
“Patience is bitter but its fruits are sweet. If we hold on, if we be patient, we can achieve our goal, for sure. Patience is always rewarded.” Read the following story to learn how to hold on or be patient. The Siblings Daniel and Jane were siblings. Daniel was the younger one. They were spending their days smoothly and happily. One day, while returning home from the playground, Daniel was feeling very upset. Jane asked, “What’s wrong, brother? Why do you feel so sad?” Daniel answered with tears in his eyes, “I know that I can’t play soccer well. Tom said that too. Everybody says that.” The elder sister advised, “They’re absolutely wrong in saying that.” Daniel said, “How can you say so?” Jane replied, “It’s so because I know that if you practise with patience, you’ll be the best soccer player in future. Just hold on, my brother. Just hold on and practise.” Daniel listened to her with rapt attention. Days went by. Daniel kept on practising with patience.
