PATIENCEWhen I was much much younge I used to sit on the creek bank and patiently ( it took some effort) wait for my cork (when I was young all bobbers were made of cork) to signal a fish was going after my bait. As I grew older I started using a rod and reel to fish. With this busy-work method I no longer sat still and patiently waited for the signal. I have found that applies to life.
Now that I am older I realize the right way is to sit still and wait for the signal. I now think of all I have missed in my lifetime while doing busy-work. The old railroad crossing signs used to express it perfectly: Stop, Look, Listen.
