Tolerance – The Way To
Peace
“One moment of patience may ward off
great disaster.
One moment of impatience may ruin a
whole life.”
Chinese proverb
In a
democratic society, tolerance is a fundamental right for happiness to
exist. Even if we get to the point that we feel we need to say something
then we must learn to say whatever is on our minds with a certain amount of
beauty, poise and love.
A society that is tolerant of each other
will grow and prosper with a feeling of togetherness and peace. Every ambition
can be realized and every dream fulfilled. A tolerant society is a healthy
society, which will go forward with purpose.
Being tolerant of each other and caring
for each other is what makes us human. By teaching tolerance, we allow
individuality and diversity while promoting peace and a civil society. Every
person of every religion has an obligation to uphold the meaning of
tolerance. In fact, tolerance is a major belief within religion; however,
it is not always practiced.
In the multi-cultural society, that we live
in it is very important to understand the needs and benefits of tolerance. We
should realize that in most cases it is far easier to change our own attitudes
rather than getting frustrated over failed efforts in changing the attitude of
others. In this manner, we develop the skills in becoming individuals who are
more tolerant.
