What is your stand on….. brought to you by BZOINK!
Good answers 🙂
Toleration
If everyone could just learn to tolerate others then I really do think it could be answer to the ills in the world. People need to understand that other people have different ideas and beliefs, but as long as those don’t intrude detrimentally into other folks lives we should learn to respect that and move on.
I really don’t think I’ve explained this very well, however hopefully you’ll see what I mean.
The exception to this is of course smoking. I would like to think that I could go out to the pub with my friends without frist realising that my favourite jumper that I wanted to wear the following day was going to have to go straight in the wash…!!
Re: Toleration
I’ve stopped and started smoking more times than I care to recall, but I would be more than happy with a total ban in restaurants and pubs. (Ideally, being selfish, I’d like to see cigarettes banned – complete removal of temptation!!)
Yes, tolerance is the key. How hard it seems to be to achieve :-/
