Only Bad things happen quickly

When we think about things that alter our lives in a moment, nearly all of them are bad phone calls in the night, accidents, loss of jobs or loved ones, conversations with doctors bearing awful news. Virtually all happiness producing processes in our lives take time, usually a long time.

Its true much of the worthwhile changes in our lives take a long time, and as such we may not even notice the changes. We are an impatient people, we want a quick fix, we can’t wait for months to see change. We need to learn patience, we need to learn perseverance, we need to stick with people when others fall away because they are tired of waiting. We must not give up!
