You're correct, I'm not that hot a listener... I don't have the patience

for it. But I wouldn't call it "my greatest weakness." I have weaknesses

that are greater.

This sounds a bit preachy to me.

"Your own" words...

Excuse me, what were you saying?!

I don't know what you consider your 'greatest weakness' to be,

(and it's not important to me), but I would ask, if you have mastered

patience, which encompasses being a compassionate listener, and

acceptance of the here and now, would you still have this 'greatest weakness'?

Perhaps, but it was not for you.
