I keep coming back to this:
Is all disappointment in life simply a matter of not having gotten what I wanted, as I wanted it, in the time that I wanted it to be gotten?
Is all suffering simply a matter of impatience?
Is this too simplistic of a viewpoint?
These are some of the questions I am living at the moment.
What about you????

Living in a world of impatience, I know - impatience is suffering since there is no acceptance, acknowledgment, or gratitude with what is. There is no peace in the moment - because we impatiently wish and want life to be otherwise. We wait for this moment to be over... only to be impatient with the next... and so on.
So yes, I agree. Simple, yes, but oh, so difficulty at times to practice patience in an impatient society.
