Patience is a mind that is able to accept, fully and happily, whatever occurs. It is much more than just gritting our teeth and putting up with things. Being patient means welcoming wholeheartedly whatever arises, having given up the idea that things should be other than what they are. It is always possible to be patient. There is not situation so bad that it cannot be accepted patiently, with an open, accommodating, and peaceful heart. - How to Solve Our Human Problems, The Four Noble Truths by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso If we practice the patience of voluntarily accepting suffering, we can maintain a peaceful mind even when experiencing suffering and pain. If we maintain this peaceful and positive state of mind through the force of mindfulness, unhappy minds will have no opportunity to arise. On the other hand, if we allow ourself to dwell on unhappy thoughts there will be no way for us to prevent anger from arising. - How to Solve Our Human Problems, The Four Noble Truths by Geshe

But now that it's cooling down, I can pull out my ankle boots from the back of the closet. I love ankle boots. Not  brand new one,  but the used ones I find at thrift stores and/or online.
