A short, first-person reflection (YouTube video) in which the speaker recounts learning patience through experiences waiting for standby airline seats—observing couples decide whether to give up a seat and relating that uncertainty to choices in relationships and life.
That I learned patience on a way deeper level. Because when I tell you when you standing at that thing and they're like, they done boarded everybody and they calling people, and if they ain't coming, they gonna drop their seats. And you look and it's one seat left, but the people in front of you is a couple, and they gotta decide are they just gonna let that seat go or they gonna say, you know what? You jump on it, I'll catch the next one. Right, right. And I've seen both of them experiences. And to be sitting there and you just waiting, you just hoping that they want to stay together, and then they don't. You're like, oh, right, right. Don't, like, don't leave her. Don't leave her. I know. I'll be like, leave her.
