Patience is a unique virtue, A precious characteristic in life,
Patience is being able to endure both long-term and short-term difficulties and have the ability to govern the temper in the process.
Patience enables one to resist provocation, control anger, avoid annoyance, repress temptation, increase faith, encourage peace, strengthen the spirit and treasure love.
