Tolerance?

Just realised how many people get into dangerous hallucinations in their own minds.
People I know, many people I know.
It's like watching someone in a nightmare, they aren't actually present to themselves at all. It's like the real person is in a deep sleep, and all thats represented to the awake people here is their torment and pain.

I read something on tolerance.
How tolerant are you towards people you don't like? Seriously?
I know people that like to think they are, (I am guilty of this also) In reality, it's just fake. Pretending to be tolerant of someone is just as bad as bullying a fat ginger 6 year old.
The word itself tolerate has 4 different meanings...

1.	to allow the existence, presence, practice, or act of without prohibition or hindrance; permit.

2.	to endure without repugnance; put up with: I can tolerate laziness, but not incompetence.

3.	Medicine/Medical. to endure or resist the action of (a drug, poison, etc.).

4.	Obsolete. to experience, undergo, or sustain, as pain or hardship.

So in this case, toleration isn't the exact word I am looking for, it is if you put up with someone or something.
Accepting others is the key, if you're able to be light and compassionate with the most fucked up people, that is acceptence.
And it occured to me how many people are actually just full of shit, or tolerative of thing's they don't like in their own life.
Tolerance comes accross to me negativly for that very reason.

With my friend tonight (who is living in his own nightmare) I noticed that I could not find the words to be able to communicate effectivly with him, I couldn't bring him out of the trap he put himself into.
It becomes stressful being around someone so out of touch, thus bringing you're own vibes down, and thus, a negative relationship is born.
I realised I was merely being tolerant of his fruit-loopiness, and not really accepting him for who he is, in order for me to actually make the relationship flourish.
And now I ask myself if it's even possible to generate a positive connection between us both?
The answer is most definatly. It would take a lot of thought power, and trust.
There would be some little button somewhere in his skull id have to smash with a hammer in order for him to click out and connect, bring out his positive (not nightmareish) side.

So, I am tolerant of him. I won't ever redicule or insult him.
Helping him, helping our connection, I don't think I want to.
Not now anyways.

It takes a lot of courage to first accept you might be wrong, and search for help from other human beings. And even more so to learn change and let go of negativity.
It takes a lot of courage.
