This morning here in portharcourt as we were going to work, I entered a keke. Inside the keke was this lady. She gave the driver a 1000 naira note for a 50 naira journey. As usual the driver started abusing her by calling her names, held her that she must give him his money that he didn't have change. I pitied this lady and gave the keke man 100 naira note for both of us. As I was going the lady ran to me and said " uncle please a minute". I looked back and saw her rushing and I said please don't worry ok! She thanked me and requested for my phone number. I gave it to her but, suprisingly few minutes ago my phone rang and I checked it was her. She sent me a 100 naira wort of mtn recharge card and a message followed it which red. "jst take this card ok, though you helped me but, I hate guys that are as loose as you to spend for a lady you don't know may be it's a good business deal for you enjoy" please my people did I do bad? A lady has helped me like that before.

Patience: The Definition by USO
Patience does not mean waiting and doing nothing. Patience involves productive activity. It means doing your very best with the resources available to you, while understanding that the results you seek are worth the required time and effort, and not available elsewhere for any less time and effort. Patience is the realization that the quality of your life in the long run is much more significant than the quantity of things you fill it with right now. Patience is not about waiting around, but the ability to keep a good attitude while working hard for what you believe in; and the activities and goals that bring you happiness...................................................
Ultimately, the two hardest tests on the road to personal growth are the patience to wait for what you want and the courage not to be disappointed when it doesn’t arrive as soon as you had expected. Patience can be bitter, but the seeds you plant now will bear sweet fruit. And these fruits are worth waiting for. There’s no point in hurrying through life and never tasting their sweetness. God bless you abundantly. - USO
