The more forgiving you were in your humane compassion, the more these rouge Kauravas pegged you as cowardly ashen. Forgiveness is becoming of the serpent that’s got venom. None cares for the toothless, poisonless, kind, gentle one. Tolerance, forgiveness and clemency are respected by the world only when the glow of strength from behind it is unfurled. Poet: Ramdhari Singh.
Tolerance is the moral courage to accept the differences of others within the framework of a civilized society. To be tolerant requires strength of character and greater responsibility. When unbalanced, tolerance is perceived as weakness and civil discourse is elusive. It is a balancing act that lately eludes me.
