Read a saying “The two most powerful warriors are patience and time”.
All three scarce these days. One, warriors for the right purpose and the other
two Patience & time. Is patience & time interdependent is something to
be thought up on. Are we ‘patient’ when we have enough time? Or do we find
enough ‘time’ when we are patient? Not sure.

Most of the traffic woes we experience everyday on roads seem to be
because of impatience. Traffic rules are compromised to save ‘time’, sometimes
less than 10 seconds. We break lanes to overtake a slow driver ahead of us. In
the process we slow down the opposite vehicles. The ‘slow driver’ you overtook catches
up with you in the next signal. Traffic, the great leveller. You jump the
signal again 5 or 6 seconds before it turns green to gain that extra ‘time’.
The pedestrian who was crossing peacefully has to hurry.
Being impatient is blamed on time. Time or lack of it has made us all
warriors. Warriors fighting against time, for time or to catch up with time.
Does Patience work here? Looks like patience is not a virtue any more. Time not
a treasure, but a war to be confronted.
It is said in our times ‘relax’ has been replaced with ‘try harder’ and
‘be happy’ with ‘achieve’. Are we happy of ‘achieving’? Time has come where
‘being happy’ is becoming an achievement. Confusing?
