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


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.

It is an unfortunate human failing that a full pocketbook often
groans
more loudly than an empty stomach.
