Patience

We as humans really need to be patient at certain things.. certain things cannot be rushed and once rushed, it will ruin the process

Annie Dillard shares her story of proper waiting:

She has been watching a butterfly emerge from its cocoon and was facinated by the process until she grew impatient of how long the process was taking. She took the liberty to speed up the process by taking a candle and heat up the cocoon, albeit very gently.

Her experiment was a success, the butterfly emerged more quickly. But the butterflly was born with weak wings, because it came out too soon. It cannot fly and thus "haste and prematurity had stunted and deformed a natural process. Some things cannot be rushed" (Dillard, cited in Rolheiser, 2007 p. 12)

And that was exactly the message.. some things cannot be rushed, such as BGR (boy-girl relationship :P)

some people rush to get into a relationship and even some thinks that sex will fasten or secure the relationship... how wrong could it be.. it will never fasten the relationship, it will never strenghten the relationship.. rather, just like the weak butterfly, it will only lead to immaturity and will disrubt a natural process..

so don't rush into a relationship, and when in a relationship, don't rush your relationship... it will grow mature with time

Love is beautiful, but it cannot feed the stomach

God Bless~
