Tolerance Tuesday
✸ Third Day of Appreciation Festival is here!!!! ✸
Welcome everyone to Tolerance Tuesday - the day when we appreciate all things related to solidarity, connection and understanding the person who you disagree with so vice versa. Understanding someone who you dont really agree with is something that would not only make you more open to different ideas, but also give a new insight into what the other person believes in.
Understanding someone who you disagree with, or creating an agree to disagree environment in the conversation requires empathy and for you to actually try to grasp where the other person is coming from. Arguments can be constructive as long as each side is willing to listen to the other person and understanding their point of view. So why not be empathetic and nice to someone who you agree to disagree with? :)
Now lets get in groove and show some love to all the things in life and in 7 cups that you feel connected to.
Goals for the Day:
> Send 10 empathetic Private Messages to listeners/members who you sometimes disagree with or have had an argument with
> Post 10 empathetic posts in any thread in our Support Forum

❤ Third Day of Appreciation Festival ❤
I LOVE the idea, it spreads love and empathy between listeners, especially with those who you disagree with, it sounds exciting and I'm looking forward for it !
I'm so good at missing discussions! :P I'm still enjoying myself though haha
Hi!! I am a day late to post. I am not into much group support as I am unable to feel connect with everyone by jumping into midst of discussion. So no disagreement there. But yes in life I do face many disagreement. Mostly I prefer mute. Sometimes I try to convey my point hard. But great part os it that this never broke my relationship . We keep continue as friend or on friendly ground with respecting uniquely different. I want to have more compassionate heart everyday than yesterday.
