FRIDAY FICTIONEERS
PATIENCE
“Look at this place! The building is old and empty, the grass never gets cut, and no one ever comes around anymore,” Barker grumbled.
“Don’t fret so much! You know things are always changing. One day somebody will buy this place and fix it up real nice,” Rooten said.
“Do you think so?”
“Sure! Look at us, right now we are as bad as that building and are contributing to the ugliness. However, when spring comes our leaves will return and we will be beautiful again.
Just be patient, there will always be changes in our life!
