I get more patient (sometimes) as the confidence rises. I have a very normy friend from high school. Spent some time with her working out this week. She knows me obviously pretty well since we've been friends for decades. I think she thinks I am pretty level headed, asks for advice, etc. I don't get into details with people anymore as much, but just say things like "get ready to find out that almost nothing you thought was true, is true. They've been lying to us for a long time about virtually everything." She is actually pretty open to that concept so now that the seed is planted I will just wait. I will say, the transgender thing is backfiring big time. Some of the most liberal people I know cannot understand it AT ALL. And the women are ticked about what it has done to women's sports. Especially if they have girls.
I was fortunate enough to go through an extended gardening phase. I learned that germination rates vary. Alot. In fact, one type of seed can take up to 500 YEARS to end its dormacy and start to germinate and only does so when triggered into life by a catastrophic fire.
I realized that applies to people too. In fact people who planted seeds that grew and transformed my life, rarely, if ever, realized it.
God bless everyone who emulates Johnny Apple Seed ie who keep planting seeds without worrying about the harvest.
