#learning to be patient

[aghostahhh]

Trying to teach myself to stay in the moment and not want to rush to the future, like to just sit and enjoy that I have time between my classes instead of being impatient waiting for it to start for example

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

The Virtue of Patience: Embracing the Power of Waiting

Shaina Tranquilino

September 17, 2023

Patience has become a rare virtue. We live in an era where instant gratification is the norm, and waiting seems like a waste of time. However, little do we realize that patience holds immense power and can transform our lives in numerous ways. In this blog post, we will delve into the importance of patience and how it can bring about positive changes.

1. Cultivating Emotional Stability:

Patience acts as a catalyst for emotional stability. When faced with challenging situations or setbacks, maintaining composure and keeping emotions in check becomes easier when one practices patience. Rather than reacting impulsively, taking a step back and allowing time to pass offers clarity and helps us make rational decisions.

2. Building Stronger Relationships:

The ability to be patient is crucial when it comes to building healthier relationships with others. Whether it's with family members, friends, or colleagues, conflicts are bound to arise. By exercising patience, we allow ourselves and others room for growth and understanding. It enables us to empathize with different perspectives, communicate effectively, and resolve conflicts amicably.

3. Pursuing Personal Growth:

Patience plays an integral role in personal development journeys. Often, we set ambitious goals but grow frustrated when immediate results aren't visible. Patience reminds us that progress takes time and encourages perseverance through setbacks or moments of doubt. It allows us to enjoy the process rather than solely focusing on the end result.

4. Nurturing Creativity:

Patience is closely linked to creativity; some of humanity's greatest artistic achievements have come from years of dedication and practice. Artists understand that true mastery cannot be rushed; it requires countless hours of honing skills and experimenting patiently until inspiration strikes. By embracing this mindset beyond artistry alone, anyone can tap into their creative potential.

5. Enhancing Mental Well-being:

In a world filled with constant distractions, patience offers solace to our restless minds. By practicing patience, we can learn to be present and appreciate the beauty of each moment. It helps us let go of unnecessary worries about the past or future, reducing stress levels and promoting overall mental well-being.

Patience is not an innate trait for most individuals; rather, it's a skill that requires conscious effort and practice. In a society that values immediacy, cultivating patience becomes even more crucial. As we embrace this virtue, we unlock its transformative power in various aspects of our lives – from relationships and personal growth to creativity and mental well-being.

So, let us remember that great accomplishments often stem from patient perseverance. Let us be willing to wait when necessary, knowing that, in due time, the fruits of our labor will emerge beautifully. Embrace the power of patience and watch as life unfolds before your eyes with newfound grace and contentment.

this point has been made before but santos and langdon are 100% written as mirrors to each other and if santos had been a man there would have been 15000000 meta posts about his snark and impulsivity being a cover for deep-seated emotional issues and his childhood but since santos is a woman she's a huge bitch who needs to get humbled. which by the way has already happened multiple times over the course of the past 10 episodes but i guess to appease the masses foaming at the mouth to see a woman crucified we need a full scene of idk robby yelling at her that shes a fuckup in front of the entire ER

i want to help people understand the sort of complex and nuanced reasons why ford behaved the way he did during a time of extreme abuse and manipulation since it's very important to me. but there's a lot to discuss.

iq has nothing to do with how a person will respond to someone deceiving them to get on their good side. especially if the victim has been abused their entire life (if it stems from a parental figure)

its harder to escape those things and notice the red flags if they're intertwined with the development of the childhood brain. your brain is reconstructed around the trauma. you will perceive it as normal, no matter your academic intelligence.

“Teach Me Gently, Guide Me Kindly”

Summary: While struggling with a challenging lesson, you find solace in Anaxa’s patient and gentle guidance. What begins as a simple study session turns into a quiet, meaningful moment of connection, as he helps you understand difficult concepts with care and warmth.

The cool breeze of the evening swept through the open windows of the study hall, rustling the papers on the desk. You were seated at one of the many tables, half-focused on the lesson, your mind wandering with thoughts of the day. The quiet hum of the building and the soft tapping of Anaxa’s chalk against the board helped you stay in the moment, though your mind had a tendency to wander.

Anaxa, ever patient, turned back from the chalkboard and caught your gaze. His one eye softened in amusement, and a slight smile tugged at his lips. “You seem distracted,” he said, his voice low but gentle.

You chuckled nervously, rubbing the back of your neck. “I guess... it’s just hard to focus with all these new concepts,” you admitted, your voice trailing off in a sheepish tone.

Anaxa’s smile widened as he stepped closer, leaning against the desk near you. “You’re not alone in that feeling,” he reassured you, his voice carrying an unexpected warmth. “Learning can be difficult, but that’s why I’m here.” He reached over and gently placed a hand on your open notebook, pointing to a particular equation. “Let’s go over it together.”

You felt your heart flutter, not from the complexity of the lesson, but from the tenderness in his words. There was something about Anaxa’s presence that made everything feel less intimidating. Maybe it was his calm demeanor or the fact that he always made sure you felt understood, but with him, learning seemed like less of a burden.

With a soft exhale, you nodded. “Okay, let’s try again.”

He leaned down a bit, his face close to yours as he explained the next step in the equation, his voice low and careful. “The key is in breaking it down. Each part has a purpose, a connection. See?” His finger traced along the page, guiding your hand over the numbers. “You’re very close, just trust the process.”

You couldn’t help but smile, feeling a little less pressure with his gentle guidance. You’d been working on this for hours, but with Anaxa, it almost felt like a quiet shared moment of peace amidst all the study. His presence was more comforting than you expected from someone with such a scholarly reputation.

When you finished the problem together, Anaxa leaned back, his smile full of quiet pride. “There you go. You did it.”

Your eyes sparkled with accomplishment, and you couldn’t suppress the small laugh of joy. “Thanks, Anaxa. I think I finally get it.”

He placed a hand over his chest, as if to modestly accept the gratitude. “It’s you who deserves the credit. I’m just here to help point the way.”

You looked up at him, meeting his gaze with a quiet warmth in your chest. “You’re a good teacher. I’m glad you’re here.”

Anaxa’s smile softened, and for a moment, he simply stared at you as if he were savoring the moment before he stood up. “I’m glad to be of assistance.” He made his way back to the board, his movements slow and purposeful.

The room grew quieter as you both returned to the lesson, but the air between you was comfortable, a gentle understanding that made everything feel just a little lighter.

And as the evening light faded and you worked through more lessons together, you couldn’t help but appreciate how much easier learning had become in his presence.

A 4 page comic about a headcanon regarding Panjosé and parenthood. To me there's no doubt Panchito is dad material, as for José tho... it might take him a little longer to get used to the idea.

The story referenced in this comic is this one, where José takes care of little baby Renata!
