Tolerating Intolerance

I cannot tolerate those who are intolerant, I cannot stand those who take a stand against unknown others unlike themselves, much less than we are truly health and safety seekers multiculturally alike. I can tolerate anything except intolerance, most certainly including impatience with myself, not excluding my esteeming estimating assessing empathizing sympathizing realizing without finalizing self and others as myself in others as myself co-empathic within other cooperatively tolerant relationships. I cannot not multiculturally tolerate monoculturally elitist tolerance of injury to MotherEarth, of patriarchal-capitalist straight white incorporated privilege of which I am so much an unwilling and unwitting and unwisely competing un-part. I can tolerate anything except intolerant exceptions to multicultural GoldenRules to love unto others as I would be loved, as I tolerantly, yet impatiently, without active curiosity about afflicting win/lose experiential wounds, love my left egoself as eco-other Best at loving my more than tolerant best and brightest ecosystemic Teacher, Master, Mistress, Mother, Father, Outdoor GreenGodVoices and Inside Healthy EarthChoices, CoCreators of all EarthTribes, as my actively cooperative green Self as part of LifeSystemic InterDependent Tolerance Habitats, More of a right-hemisphere tolerated HumanTruth is also left-hemisphere awesomely unfathomable EarthBeauty Sacred vocation into selfless worship of His/Her barely tolerable comings and goings, solstice and equinox, inhales and exhales, yang tolerant strengths and yintegrity's intolerance of business as usual lack of win/win green cooperative inspiration inhalations, more tolerant intimations. I cannot remain uncurious about my own monculturing, dualistic, anthro-supremacist Sacred EarthMother denialistic pathological pedagogical apartheid tolerance and disinvestments away from cooperative polycultural EarthHealth Systems, Care giving and receiving democratic social public biological mental animated energetic ecological synergetic pedagogical theological eco-political healthy multi-systemic poly-paradigmatic resilience And so I ask through my intolerably insatiable curiosity, what is the greatest experience you have had so far, of self as part of other? And, my answer ubiquitous in original gifted, fore-given onto Earth's vast green living birthday context MultiColored in associated feelings, ranging from "everyday since ego's embodied birth continues my grateful eco-celebration of positive healthy neuro-psychological systems" to "everyday since has been hellishly wounding downhill." It is these latter intolerable losses and sorrows and sufferings painfully defensive monoculturists, like my egoSelf, are most likely to impatiently challenge my yin-flexible plasticity toward restoring win/win active curiosity Responding to such hopelessly naive green optimism with defensive win/lose intolerance for risking active healthing hope of wealthy faith in lavishly liberal love When all intolerably long debating shouting and highly competitive corporate marketed evidence of my lifelong miseducated and diseducated unhealthy win/lose normative economic devolutionary disempowering disillusioning inevitable and intolerable lose only to mortally lose nihilistic theorized experience ignores all green signs of fore-giving cooperative economics, co-redemption messianic politics, restorative justice, non-violent communication networks, organic polycultural systems designers, democratizing health/wealth bicameral tolerance Today too red egocentrically limited to progressive green WinWinners gifting forward political economies supporting local win/win value communications intentions more than tolerant universal appreciations, slow-grown sacred unitarian applications, prayers, anthems To global green compassion, far beyond mere tolerance, for Earth's GreatCommons, for Her Indigenous GreenCommunion empowering present curiosity, enlightening past habits of patriarchal intolerance.
