Love and Patience Go Hand in Hand

Writing a novel is an act of patience.
It takes thousands of pages, written one word at a time, day after day.
Chefs, construction workers, farmers—they all rely on patience to do their work well.
But nowhere is patience more essential than in love.
When you truly care about someone, you endure even when their actions frustrate you.
You don’t walk away.
Patience is the quiet force that holds us up from within.
Love and patience are inseparable.
You need love to be patient for the long haul.
You need patience to make love last.
Love helps us work better, and patience helps us write better.
The foundation of life is built on both.
