Words Matter…

…words matter. But surely what matters even more is how they are interpreted, translated and understood? What/who gives words a positive or negative connotation? Is it culture, language, media…?

‍

A word I find intriguing is ‘tolerance’.

• What does that mean to you?
• Is it positive or negative? Neutral?
• Is it something you aspire towards or rebel against?
• How would you define tolerance?

‍

And, of course, there’s no right or wrong, just fascinatingly different perspectives. 🌍

‍

From my (anecdotal) research - my long suffering friends- I’ve heard a lot of varying thoughts around ‘tolerance’.
