"Infinite patience yields immediate results." --Marianne Williamson
A Dog with Infinite Patience
Are you the kind of person who has a hard time waiting for anything? Here's some inspiration for you: Hachiko, Japan's most celebrated canine. A dog who walked his owner to the train station every day and came back to receive him in the evening after work. When his owner died one day while at office, this faithful dog refused to go home and waited patiently at the station -- for ten years(!) -- until his own passing. To see the bronze statue erected at the station that thousands of dog-lovers and travelers from around the world visit each year, click here.
