Patience is the state of endurance under difficult circumstances, which can mean persevering in the face of delay or provocation without becoming annoyed or upset. It is also used to refer to the character trait of being steadfast.
In the Christian religion, patience is one of the most valuable virtues of life. Increasing patience is viewed as the work of the Holy Ghost in the Christian who has accepted the gift of salvation. While patience is not one of the traditional biblical three theological virtues nor one of the traditional four cardinal virtues, it is one of the seven virtues, alongside chastity, temperance, charity, diligence, kindness, and humility.
In Buddhism, patience is one of the "perfections" that a bodhisattva trains in and practices to realize perfect enlightenment. Patience is recognized within Hinduism in the Bhagavad Gita. In both Hinduism and Buddhism there is a particular emphasis on meditation, aspects of which lead to a natural state of mindfulness that is conducive to patient, effective and well-organised thought.

film review
In the weekend, I saw a movie very old, it was named Candilejas, were filmed in 1952, in black and white; with the comedy actor Charles Chaplin, but it was a drama film.
At the beginning, the movie went so slow, its about an old man, that was an unemployed comedian, and his better years passed; by chance he saved the life of a young girl, he courage her to be alive, and to fight together to get by.
The next part of the film turns better.
She manage to do a great balet dancer and becomes very famous. She falls in love with the comedian but he considered that himself is too old for her, so he move away.
Months pass, and a great producer find the comedian, and propose him to do a special show in theatre for him, for the good times, and he accepted.
During his participation, the audience really laugh at him, but part of his show is about fall from the stage, and he results hurt. A heart attack began to him, and almost he didn´t say goodbye to the audience, but he did.
The show ended with the balet dancer dancing, and he hoping to see her, but he didn´t reach her.
I think it´s a great movie, because the second part is full of things that you don´t expected, and the end is better for the same reason.

advice
Dear Nicholas,
The advice that I can give you is you should have more interest in your health, and you are not scared to impose new rules, for your self, and for everyone you work. I think, you would have to visit the doctor for have a health´s advice and just doing! and stay near to him. You can, if you really care.
