The different responses filled me with satisfaction since I realized there was not a correct answer only unique opinions. One of my friends said, "It depends." How true! I guess today's post is about patience and acceptance.
What do I mean? I tend to get anxious and impatient when I want to take action. How about you? I work everyday to step back and evaluate without losing the importance of taking action. There are times when you simply must breathe and accept "no answer" yet to whatever question lies in front of you. This does not mean something good isn't taking place. Acceptance leads to serenity.
The Coach has an unwavering faith in God. He relies on it daily in order to maintain a rosy viewpoint of life. Some might say he only sees the good in people and this is not realistic. I, on the other hand, appreciate the beauty and good my Dad sees every day. His acceptance allows this in his life. Now this does not mean he is happy every moment, but he certainly feels at peace in his own skin. It is wonderful to witness.
Today's Lesson from the Coach's Daughter is...Work to be patient without losing your drive and give yourself permission to accept something if you don't feel the timing is right to take action. Meditate about it and I am certain the right answer will become apparent to you. You will then know whether to run the race like the tortoise or the hare!
