Hello, hello my dear and appreciated friends and colleagues of NeedleWorkMonday, I wish you an excellent week.
In today's post I would like to talk to you about a virtue that is very necessary for us crafters: Patience. Today I will tell you a little about how crochet has helped me to cultivate this beautiful virtue.
Sin embargo, este gran don no es algo que me acompañe en la totalidad de las situaciones de la vida diaria. Hay situaciones en que la impaciencia gana un poco la batalla. Todo esto se debe a que soy una persona que necesita ocupar y aprovechar al máximo el tiempo disponible. Hace muy poco pude descubrir que a esta condición se le llama "cronopatía".
Para mí, perder el tiempo me causa mucha ansiedad, de allí que tengo la particularidad de intentar hacer dos cosas al mismo tiempo.
Most people who know me agree that I am a very patient person. They say so because that is what they perceive through my speech and actions. In the same way, one of the virtues that accompanies me in my work as a teacher of children and adolescents is precisely patience.
However, this great gift is not something that accompanies me in all situations of daily life. There are situations in which impatience wins the battle a little. All this is due to the fact that I am a person who needs to occupy and make the most of the time available. Very recently I was able to discover that this condition is called "chronopathy".
For me, wasting time causes me a lot of anxiety, hence I have the peculiarity of trying to do two things at the same time.
Aprender a tejer me tomó tiempo debido a que lo hice de manera autodidacta, con la ayuda de unas revistas de ganchillo. Todo ese proceso me permitió aprender a cultivar la paciencia, ya que en el crochet es preciso ser paciente y estar concentrado. Desde entonces, el crochet ha estado en mi vida como mi terapia favorita y me ha ayudado muchísimo.
This condition has been with me for as long as I can remember, but it peaked during my university years. At that time I studied two careers at the same time and took a large number of courses, trainings and extracurricular activities in order to be able to cover as many busy hours as possible. There was a time when I was forced to take a break for health reasons. It was a time when I didn't know what to do with so much free time, as I had to be resting. At that time I learned about the wonderful art of knitting.
Learning to knit took me some time because I did it in a self-taught way, with the help of some crochet magazines. The whole process allowed me to learn to cultivate patience, since crochet requires patience and concentration. Since then, crochet has been in my life as my favorite therapy and has helped me a lot.
El día de hoy decidí ir preparada y llevar conmigo mis materiales de tejer para calmar un poco mi ansiedad. Pues les cuento que resulto estupendo, porque el tiempo de espera me pareció más corto y porque logré entrar a la consulta mucho más relajada. Por eso les puedo decir con mucha convicción que el crochet es una terapia maravillosa.
For some weeks now I have been going to the dental office to treat a bruxism problem that has been bothering me. In these consultations I have had to wait for several hours to be attended since there are many patients in the morning hours. In my first appointments, the wait was quite uncomfortable and caused me a lot of stress, because I felt I was wasting valuable time sitting there just looking at my cell phone.
Today I decided to go prepared and take my knitting materials with me to calm my anxiety a little bit. Well, I can tell you that it turned out great, because the waiting time seemed shorter and because I was able to enter the consultation much more relaxed. That is why I can tell you with great conviction that crochet is a wonderful therapy.
Me encantó compartir esta anécdota con ustedes. Muchas por leer, saludos y bendiciones.
In the pictures I show you what I was knitting and what I was able to advance for my next project. I came back very happy and relaxed as I felt I was able to make the most of the time doing a much needed errand and at the same time advancing my project for this week.
I loved sharing this anecdote with you. Many thanks for reading, greetings and blessings.
