Confusing sentence
Hi all.
I had a question concerning a sentence and I was hoping you could help. English is my second language, so quite possibly, I am not understanding the meaning of this phrase.
The phrase in question is, "In as far as you help me keep patience even more so, enabling me to be able to leap past the surface of arguments and allowing me to read your words into oblivion."
Thank you in advance for any help you might be able to provide.
