January 17, 2010: The Downward Path – Michael Hidalgo

There is something to be said about someone who has what it takes to trust that everything happens in its time. This is the spirit of the gentle and patient person. It is the meek person, who believes that there is no use in getting mad, because in the end truth will win out. The gentle, or meek, person knows that there is injustice – their response – to withstand the heat (which is what this word translated as patience really means). To be this kind of person takes a tremendous amount of hope, belief and faith. This only happens when people set their minds on things above.
