Episode 338 - THE POWER OF PATIENT PATIENCE
Episode 338 - THE POWER OF PATIENT PATIENCE
In this episode of "The Thick and Mystic Moment," host Robert John Hadfield shares his recent visit to the Sphere in Las Vegas with his son. He describes the Sphere's impressive exterior, which transforms into various visuals like a giant eye or the moon, and its immersive interior that features a massive screen and innovative displays. During their visit, they watched "Postcard from Earth," a visually stunning film designed to maximize the Sphere's unique capabilities.
Hadfield then delves into a personal reflection sparked by his thoughts on U2, a band that had a residency at the Sphere. He recounts his evolving appreciation for U2 and their song "40," which is based on Psalm 40 from the Bible. This leads him to discuss the concept of patience, both in the context of the song and its deeper meaning in life.
He draws parallels between patience and the experience of being a patient in a hospital, sharing anecdotes about his own injuries and the advice he received from doctors to be patient during recovery. Hadfield emphasizes that patience involves calmly tolerating situations without indifference and that it is a crucial virtue to develop over time.
To illustrate the power of patience further, Hadfield reads an article by General Omar Bradley titled "Patience is Power." Bradley's insights, written in 1953 during the Korean War, highlight the importance of patient steadfastness in both personal and national contexts. He argues that patience can prevent the misapplication of power and lead to more thoughtful and effective actions.
Hadfield concludes by stressing that true patience is tested during challenging times, not during moments of calm. He encourages listeners to reflect on their reactions in difficult situations to assess their level of patience genuinely. Through his thoughtful narrative, Hadfield underscores the value of patience as a guiding principle in life.
