PATIENCE, TOLERANCE AND TEAM SPIRIT

The current political situation with the hostility toward our President, his actions, and the Democrats' behvior of a petulant child are enough to drive one to a full blown migraine headache and to give up on humanity.  It confirms my belief that we do not teach our children some of the key virtues but allow them to grow up self-absosrbed sore losers unable to cope with the possibility that there is possibly more than one way to accomplish things.  AND possibly more than one goal to w hich to be direected.  The fact that the last two generations do not seem to have had any history or  civic classes and are ignorant of the founding of this country, its meaning, and why it is important is obvious and not helping.

Patience -the quality of being patient, as the bearing of provocation, annoyance, misfortune, or pain, without complaint, loss of temper, irritation, or the like- the ability to wait and see if something is going to work - requires open mindedness.

Tolerance  (acceptance) -willingness to accept behavior and beliefs that are different from your own, even if you disagree with or disapprove of them:
religious/racial tolerance; (2) the ability to bear somethingunpleasant or annoying, or t to keep going despite difficulties
