Patience is a virtue… So they say

Patience is a virtue

If I had a dime for every time I’ve heard that said to me alone… I’d really be richer than Rockefeller!

All my family and friends tell me that I will be an exceptional father, and modestly speaking, I believe I will be a good father. As a want-to-be dad, all I can imagine is giving my children the best possible life I can, hopefully without spoiling them. Yet I question how if I am losing my patience day-in day-out? If I start getting frustrated with the little things… Perhaps a little weaker and sadder each day, because the more we try, the more we fail at conceiving.

At moments I almost feel like I am lying to myself in thinking it’s going to happen and to have faith, be patient. Generally in my short life, I have always defied what doctors said, or in a way proved them wrong. Now they say, “it will happen”, or “it’s just a matter of time”, yet I can’t help feel that I may prove them wrong once again.

It is hard, and I can only imagine what my wife must feel like, but I am stronger for her as well. I just have to have faith and be the most patient person I can be right now.
