How did these levels of impatience grow?
Believe me, it is hard to remember, to know
I’m not making excuses, but there’s reason
We’ve outgrown patience, each season
Electronics prompt us with immediate action
Could this be the culprit of our reaction?
Instant photos promote immediate sharing
Sometimes without the personal touch ‘caring’
Click on ‘send’ emails expect quick response
Before we’ve had time to digest words to launch
No time to savor the moment, life’s treasures
Instant gratification escalated beyond measure
Navigating with speed through web pages
Frustration, even anger prompt the ages
To feel stress and bewildered by loss
Electronic immediacy has become boss
Now is the time to step back and demand
To turn off stress and let us understand
That the more patient we become, dear friends
Better health, better decisions result in the end.
