:Patience is a virtue" Often this phrase has been used to encourage one to bear the pains that come with the result one seeks.

Patience is seen as a capacity to tolerate delay, but this definition doesn't give the intel of what "being patient is about."

Don't be confused, follow me.

The life we live is full of ups and downs, that isn't a bone of contention. What matters here is just how well we tend to manage our emotions and the extent of our tolerance.

Patience is the capacity to tolerate while forbearance is patient self-control itself.

So which is a virtue?

Between two things, one will always stand out over another and here, I'll say patience has a limit but forbearance doesn't, which makes it more lasting than patience, making forbearance stand out over patience.

Don't get me wrong, this is just my view and I stand corrected.

In conclusion, in all thy being, be patient with one another and at the back of your mind know that where patience isn't enough, forbearance will have to step in.
