Just
out of the blue all of a sudden we come across a moment where every hovering
piece of jigsaw fits, we experience everything around us falling into right
places, our words our steps our assignments each damn mechanism finds its
perfect place and all this arising in just one moment, that moment where the
time neither moves fast nor slow it ticks just at the right pace, that moment is
so convincing that everything around you makes complete sense. You feel the
picture is complete and nothing can now interrupt your attention. The moment
when you feel you never can be rebelled.
There
are men and women who happen to experience this flow. Only reason for they are
utterly patient and silently moulding their strength to make things happen,
things which once were nothing more than just beliefs. These people had an
undying impact of a thought or an event or even a person who deep down significantly
guided them to make a mark. They worked hard for their convictions to
materialise, faced challenges, but waited with utmost serenity no matter what
and how harsh the conditions were. They are at the top pedestals of whatever
curriculum they belong to. Just a question they never asked was ‘patience pays,
but when?’ this is the only reason that they have an impressive smile a smile
that gives hope to amateurs like me, and proves that forbearance is the art needed
to be practised and mastered.
At
this moment I have a conviction, to give myself some time and overcome my
paucities, to be able to make sacrifices that require me to keep moving on with
just one belief that patience will pay someday and when it pays, the sacrifices
that I make shall be meagre before the reward of being persistent. I want to
smile that smile and emboss a mark, but then I know I shall have to put in time
and labour, be away with unwanted restlessness and most important, be patient
to see things falling in place and for me.
