"Please Be Patient With Me" is a song by Wilco. Below, you will find the YouTube Video of the song. Please watch it, but I warn you, it may bring tears to your eyes. My husband shared the song with me this evening as we were discussing our situation in relation to that of Will and Emma on the episode of Glee entitled "Yes/No." I happened to be watching that episode this evening on Hulu. OCD is not exactly the same as depression, but it is a mental illness. I told my husband that if I knew that I was going to have to go through these struggles again, that I would do it all over again. He then shared this appropriate song with me.
I had been floating around the idea of writing a blog and the song moved me to start it this evening, dedicating the title of my blog to the title of the song.
It is not easy when you love someone with a mental illness, but life is not meant to be fair. We will all go through our own trials and tribulations. We will have success and failure. We need to show compassion through amazing patience. Definitely not my strong suit, but we all need it.
