WILL THIS DAMNED PANDEMIC EVER END?

PATIENCE


YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE IT UNTIL IT IS TESTED


People patiently waiting in line, spaced six feet apart, to get into my Kroger Store. 

Patience or forbearance is the ability to endure difficult circumstances such as perseverance in the face of delay; tolerance of provocation without responding in annoyance/anger; or forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with longer-term difficulties. Patience is the level of endurance one can have before negativity. It is also used to refer to the character trait of being steadfast.

In psychology, patience is studied as a decision-making problem, involving the choice of either a small reward in the short-term, versus a more valuable reward in the long-term. When given a choice, all animals, humans included, are inclined to favor short-term rewards over long-term rewards. This is despite the often greater benefits associated with long-term rewards.
  

The habit of being able to wait for something better without frustration and losing one's focus.
