Quote of the Week – Patience

The quote to think about this week is:

“A moment of patience in a moment of anger can help us avoid a thousand moments of sorrow.” by Imam Ali

Patience is difficult for most of us.  We always seem to be in a rush and in a hurry to do what we need to do.  We are often quick to react to what people say and do.  How would our world be different if everyone stopped to think before acting?
