==Tolerance==
Tolerance is made easy by love. If you love your neighbor, if you love an enemy as you would a friend, it naturally becomes easier to accept or tolerate their activities. You may certainly choose not to be involved in their actions, nor wish to share yourself in what you feel to be their misguided doings; but be not less than loving. Be accepting. To be intolerant of this person, is to empower their actions to have control over you, thus making you less than what you are capable of being. To be tolerant of others, not only adds to your growth, but it keeps the door open which allows change in the one being shown your unconditional love, your understanding tolerance. - Norson

Picture in your mind a dam holding water, one that is not yet full, but is filling. Your experiences are the water that fills the dam..the beautiful lake behind the dam. Occasionally, you have another experience that opens the dam momentarily, and outflows the unified mind experience of your entire life in a rush. Then you feel the tapering off as the spillway is raised. The water begins to trickle and then it stops. Your emotions are very similar. They are born from the totality of your life experiences. When you have an occurrence in your life that opens the dam, much of your past experience that surrounds that occurrence flows from the safe keeping places within your mind into your consciousness as an indescribable flood of feeling. - Signa
