… a great place to learn the difficult art of patience.
Like yesterday, when the bus to Melaka left 45 minutes late. Why? I don’t know. I think the driver was having a smoke.
Or today when the commuter train didn’t show up for a half hour. I could have walked to my destination.
Or in Ubud when the water shut off in the mid-afternoon. Why? I don’t know.
Or today when the cab driver insisted I pay him 10 RM instead of the 5 RM on the meter. Right. 100% tip. I’m generous, but not that generous.
Or the traffic. Everywhere. Enough said.
Today, I am a more patient person.
Breathe.
