Intolerance

Intolerance when we are so indigent in love for others they appear obtuse their every remark egregious to our ear. It is a human weakness. Intolerance the delirium of self, a delicate imbalance between ego and self-hate that one can mediate with patience to bring the awakening of understanding a heart to tolerate and the blessing of God to consecrate. 9/5/19

To be indigent of love is to be truly poor. Well done, Janis.
