This morning, I made my coffee slowly, deliberately — not rushed, not distracted. I watched the steam curl from the cup, noticed the subtle aroma, and savored the first sip.
Normally, I’d be multitasking — checking messages, planning my day, moving too fast to truly notice. But today, I allowed myself the time to be present.
It reminded me that patience isn’t just about waiting. It’s about fully engaging with what’s happening now, no matter how small or ordinary it seems. A simple cup of coffee became a moment of meditation, grounding me for the day ahead.
Today, find your small moment to practice patience. Slow down, notice, and let the ordinary teach you presence.
