Assets.
Haha. The title looks like a difficult one-worder kind of composition topic. But, today I will focus on one particular asset that I believe people should erm possess.
Patience, is indeed a virtue. It is an asset. And because time is invariant, that's why we, being flexible Earth-dwelling substances, have to learn to keep up with this blessing/curse called time. And in keeping up, change occurs. Simply because, we have to keep up, we need to adapt. Darwin's theory of the Survival of the fittest, is present in any form of community, be it plants, animals, micro-organisms, and of course, the cruelty of our present society. So therefore, because we (Singaporeans especially) like to think we are forward-looking people, because the government has painted a lovely idealists' vision for us, because we like to think we're the best, because we hate to be called obiang, because we hate to be caught with yesterday's technology, because we love to cut queues, because we are all basically materialistic creatures, patience is hard to come by. And in being hard to come by, the fundamental need for it grows, simply because we do not have it.
A good example would be myself. I find myself eyeing on every new thing falling under the endless spectrum of things which you would categorise under "things".

Gaahhh, can't be bothered to continue. The inner mechanisations of my mind are an enigma.
