TOLERANCE

Tolerance: ˈtäl(ə)rəns/

noun
1. the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with.

I believe tolerant means to be considerate on what a person says even if you don't feel the same way. For example, if someone in a different religion shares something with me that I don't believe I can listen, share my own belief, but in a way that won't harm the other persons feelings. In that way I can be tolerant to people while listening closely on how they feel, reflect on their opinion, and know that we won't always have the same opinion, but I can still be a tolerant person.
