Tolorance--a Very Significant Word
A significant word
is tolerance.
We must find in our hearts
our own truth,
and allow the same
freedom of discovery
to others.
Many loving truths
live in diverse hearts.
The only imperative is
to try to find the truth
in one loving heart-
our own.

"The highest result of education is tolerance"--Helen Keller
We cannot and should not try to influence or control the thoughts and feelings of others.
There are many truths in the world which lead to the development of loving hearts. Each thinking individual must ultimately find his own path to wholeness.
What we can, however, seek to accomplish is to try to implement and ensure an open society that will allow the free and easy exchange of all information, and then trust that individuals given open access to all ideas will make loving choices( whether those choices be political, religious or social) that will ultimately benefit us all.
