Tolerance does not mean to simply leave a thing as it is - the "grin and

bear it" attitude of the world. Spiritual tolerance enables you to stay

within a crisis and help to resolve it, because tolerance is of a higher

order, or higher power, than intolerance, ego, anger. It means you are

able to respond with understanding, care and compassion to the

situation. Where there are feelings of friendship and love, difficulties

 will be overcome. To tolerate something is a demonstration of goodwill,

of having the aim to be co-operative and work for resolution.

Tolerance wins the hearts of others.
