Please For Tolerance 🦋

A  L  O  H  A !

"The most daring thing 
is to create stable communities 
in which the terrible disease 
of loneliness can be cured."
             Kurt Vonnegut

"Enemies are so stimulating."
Katharine Hepburn







"Truth springs from argument
 amongst friends.
                  David Hume

Pleas for Tolerance
are always aimed
at others.

Yet we are proud
of our own unbending
Intolerance
And call it
Standing For Something.

After all:
We are right.
They Are deplorable.

In your eyes.
In their eyes.
They have a point of view.
But we know ours is Right.

Well how you behave
is the meatiest part
of being Right.

Do not sneer,
Do not punch,
Do not  kill.

Judge Not lest
the one judged guilty
is yourself.

What happened to Reverence?
When did we begin to look
to the angriest,
instead of the
Wisest?

The mountains take
a broader view,
as we live less
than one of their minutes.

What will matter tomorrow,
for society, for me,
for you, for your health,is
the feelings we marinate in
and how we behave.
Tolerance.

Thank YOU
Friend!
Fondly, cloudia

I thought Javanese was a programming language! BA, maybe not.

It's important to remember that there are more kind souls, like yours, than deplorables. The news from your US is horrid. I hope changes will arise. I try to keep the faith.
