TOLERANCE

"The price of
freedom of
religion or of
speech or of the
press is that we
must put up
with, and even pay
for, a good
deal of
rubbish."
-- Justice Robert
Jackson

I need to be tolerant in my sobriety. I need to allow
others to say what
they feel and live according to their standards.

I was intolerant towards people who were different from
myself. Much
of what I criticized yesterday, I accept today; some
things I still reject.

To love a person should not require "sameness";
equally, I can accept
a person without agreeing with what they say or how
they behave.
Disagreements and conflicts lead to growth; change
requires a variety
of forces.

Not everything I say to do is "pure" --- and that has
become the key to
the acceptance of others. My history teaches me that I
benefit from the
variety of opinions that are represented in mankind.

Lord, You have created many ways to Truth, may I
appreciate them
through the experiences of others.
