Just a thought..

What is patience? What is the antonym of patience?

Many would say is impatience.. i mean how difficult could it be? I was asked by someone about this.. and i knew it wasn't that simple.. but i just couldn't figure out what the answer is and blurted out, "Impatience la!"

However... the answer that I was told is PRIDE. Why would a person lose his patience? because of his pride.. he wants his ways of doing things, hence he doesn't want to wait, doesn't want to hear from others... only his ways because he thinks he is good...

why pride? because many times, we think that we are right... we think that we are wise... so, we lack of patience.. we can't wait, we can't endure, we can't tolerate...

I really like what my friend said.. the opposite of patience is PRIDE.
