Words for the Day for Sunday, December 28, 2008

The Two Words for Today are Patience and Tolerance.

Once again, this is the third time. First time, I began the definitions, and second time, continued them, though both times, these were my own definitions.

This time, let's get some help, first for Patience, and then Tolerance.

Patience? "good-natured tolerance of delay or incompetence". I like how the first word leads to the second one!

Tolerance? "permissiveness: a disposition to allow freedom of choice and behavior". I like this definition because it distinguishes Tolerance from Acceptance.

Once more, what do you think?
