Patience is the capacity to accept, tolerate delays, problems and suffering without becoming annoyed. One can find goodness, if they have the patience to sift through the rubbish. The real meaning of patience is the ability of bearing provocation, annoyance, misfortune, pain without complaint, loss of temper, irritation, or the likes. The innate ability to suppress restlessness or annoyance when confronted with delay. It is to have patience with a slow learner. Patience is important as it enables us to analyze things and situations beyond their face value. That resourcefulness, calm, and empathetic behavior, self-control of patient people makes them popular. It also gives inner peace and the ability to keep smiling despite challenges.

However, for some thing or someone to be invaluable means they are extremely useful. The experience one have had in life can prove to be invaluable in future. It is beyond estimation, priceless, of great value so much it cannot be quantified. Just like having a spiritual mentor, the mentee should have enough patience to be impacted upon which can take months or years. If mentee lack patience nothing will be achieved in the spiritual journey.
