Patience is a virtue

Last Sunday, my mother and I went to the mall to look for a dress she'll be using for my cousin's wedding. That's my christmas gift to her. Unfortunately, she didn't find one that suited her taste and style. My mother's a little conservative and doesn't go for ruffles, fitted clothes, the likes. I kept on making suggestions though but since she's the one who's going to wear it she needs to like it, of course. After 3 hours of finding, searching and walking, we went home without the dress. I felt a little guilty too that day because I wasn't talking to her anymore (maybe because I was tired already) and I think I've lost my patience na rin hehe:) I tried to keep my cool. We headed to different boutiques and still, nothing. I know she was getting a little frustrated (I'm just not sure if it's because of not finding the right dress or because of me hehe) because she'll need it this Saturday.

But don't get me wrong (defensive me), it's not that I didn't speak to her entirely after that 3 long hours..I did. I did try to salvage the mood because of the guilt and for the reason that I didn't want her to feel bad too (because I was feeling annoyed already). I lightened up the mood. So to make up for the guilt, I told her I'll again accompany her on Friday to buy the dress.

Lesson learned: I should be patient. I need to be patient.. patient enough to the people I care and love the most..
