I think that patience is underrated in society. It is so hard to be patient with certain things/people/situations that it should be considered a virtue.

it depends, a Christian virtue, yes. a Satanic virtue, no, but it does help to have it none the less. as for the other religions, i don't know, but most likely yes. the only time i can think of it as patience not being a virtue is in modern consumerism. think about it, we all want this and that NOW. not later, but NOW.

Wait around for a few months and then you can tell us----actually it is --because I'm not all that virtuous and I have no patience at all

Very much so, one I do not have much of. My train of thought leaves a lot and I have to send my patience after it.

yes indeed. Otherwise you would become overly nervous over anything especially in business. So why get ulcers before your time?

Oh yes! I know it is because I surely am lacking in that area. If everyone had it, it wouldnt be so valued.
