Patience In A Jar

I have a jar,
filled with ambitions.
With every cent the jar brings me closer,
And with every dollar I am brought further.
But....as time passes,
accidents happen and the jar must be emptied.
Generosity will drain its stomach,
But kindness will return the gesture.
Desires will void it.
However with patience, the dreams stuck in a jar will be no more.
