Patience [noun] the capacity to accept or tolerate delay,
problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious [as defined by Oxford Dictionaries].
Patience is not really my virtue. I hate waiting – maybe this
is why I had difficulty about arriving on time but I am trying hard to be punctual
to show respect to others’ time since I also get annoyed when I have to wait
long for somebody.
And thank God for His wisdom and all experiences I had where
I learned either to wait patiently or act without thinking much before His
response. His timing is always perfect (Ecclesiastes 3:11) and we can choose
whether to be still before the LORD and wait patiently for Him (Psalm 37:7) or stressed
out yourself by worrying too much (Luke 12:25).
Plus there are a lot more Bible verses that talk about
patience. Including a character of love – it is patient (1 Corinthians 13:4).

This weekend, I just saw 2011 romance film “Waiting for Forever”, starred Rachel Bilson and Tom Sturridge. The storyline contained sweet
thoughts with an expected happy ever after ending, lovely soundtrack and a
super charming loverboy ♥
The movie will leave you questioning “how long would you wait?” and “could you
wait forever?”. I also appreciate its fresh and laidback cinematography style –
like I’m watching Catch and Release (2006) again. Also check out lingering songs by The Mostar Diving Club: Worlds Apart and Worlds Collide and Black Lab's Mine Again.
So here are some clips and lines by Will Donner (Tom
Sturridge). Eeee for his cute smile and blue eyes!

| If I had one wish it would be that your life brings you a taste of happiness that you brought me. That you can feel what it's like to love. / Bad love letters beg for love back. Good love letters ask for nothing. / It doesn't matter. It's just being around where she might be, that's plain. - Will Donner |
Happy Monday ♥
