“Patience is what you have when doing nothing starts to look like progress.”
— The Sage
The Sage has long maintained that patience is an underrated art form — particularly in a world obsessed with speed. To him, waiting isn’t a void to be filled but a space to breathe, observe, and allow life to unfold. True patience, he suggests, is not passive; it’s quietly active — the stillness before the tide turns.
He’s fond of saying that the universe has its own calendar and rarely bothers to share it with us. When doing nothing begins to feel like something, that’s when patience becomes transformative. It’s the moment we stop wrestling with time and start trusting it. The Sage understands that sometimes the most profound movement comes disguised as calm.
And of course, he finds humour in it all. To The Sage, there’s a kind of cosmic mischief in how life rewards those who wait — not with what they expected, but with what they never knew they needed. His chuckle at the world’s timing is the sound of wisdom learning to relax.
