Patience

OK so I always knew you were supposed to be poor when you first got married and you were supposed to struggle through school. I've always heard that this time is supposed to be when some of the best memories are made. I believe that and I am mostly willing to do that. But I am not patient. I am not patient at all, why is it that everyone around me doesn't seem poor, that everyone can afford car payments and townhouses and pets. I want to know their secret. Yeah yeah I know I am not supposed to covet and I am trying not too, I just wish I was a patient person to begin with so that I wouldn't have to learn the "patient" lesson.
