Forbearance endows you with strength to face the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. A person without forbearance easily succumbs to reverses and difficulties. Together with truth and forbearance, you must cultivate freedom from jealousy too. Envy is like the pest that attacks the root of a tree. Envy can destroy your entire life. We enjoy many things in life - knowledge, wealth, position, power, etc. But if the virus of envy enters our minds, it will pollute everything. Never give place to envy even in the smallest matter.
