I wish I could say I have mastered the art of tolerance.
"Without the will to understand someone’s opinions or actions, tolerance is impossible."
👏🏻
Thank you, Moorea. ❤️
Wise words on tolerance. It is not superiority, but understanding.
Exactly, Stephanie.
One of the more essential tasks of the human condition and its dream of separation from another.
While we are in fact, one.
Yes…very well said, Rea. Love the quote, one’s enemy is the best teacher, it really expands the concept of tolerating those who particularly challenge us, doesn’t it 😉 x
That's the secret, Esther. Love conquers all. Thank you, my friend. ❤️
Enemy: Evil,
whatever that means... Loveless?
Challenge: Empathy.
More empathy is needed in the world. 🙏
There is pure truth here
Thank you, Adrian.
Sometimes, one must remove oneself from the source of intolerable behaviour x
I was waiting for someone to mention it. Thank you, Tom!
this felt like sipping warm tea while someone gently rearranges my entire worldview.
The way you untangled tolerance from superiority — oof, that hit with a quiet truth I wasn’t expecting.
I loved how you kept circling back to empathy, not as a halo-polishing exercise, but as the actual doorway to understanding.
There’s such a grounded calm in your voice — like you’re reminding us that patience isn’t weakness, it’s emotional strength doing yoga.
And that Dalai Lama line?
Rea, you folded it in so gracefully it became the heartbeat of the whole piece.
A beautiful, steady reflection.
You are exceptionally insightful, Asuka! Thank you for this!
Profoundly important and relevant to these times. Thank you Rea. <3
These times are trying, Stephanie. Thank you. ❤️❤️
This is so true.
Thank you, Marie.
Amen to that, Rea! Tolerance is in short supply these days.
Unfortunately, Carole.
Be tolerant, but don't be a door mat. Great post, Rea.
Precisely. Thank you, Parker.
Tolerance of oneself is a start. Often our own self critic is far harsher on ourselves than to others.

I’m guilty of that. 💙
Well said Rea. Love that
Thank you, Maralet! <3 <3
Beautifully written, very powerful and a really important message for these troubled times ….🙏
