“
Number 43: Patience
Remember the soft and the gentle
Eventually overcomes the hard and the rigid
Inside our hearts
As it is in the world around us
Almost imperceptible energy
Can crack open that which you thought was impenetrable
This is the teaching of non-forcing
But if you are teaching by example without instruction
And you are working with the least energy necessary
And you are not out there ruthlessly fighting for the truth with all your might
Folks won’t get you at all
At first”
