on tolerance

Writer's picture: jennifer jade merrihuejennifer jade merrihue




We can tolerate a lot


We can grow our tolerance


We can weaken it


It can apply to dealing with hardship, to holding sensation, to losing things, alcohol, people, to being around children, to sweetness, to sourness, to rage, to pleasure... the list is endless


This word for some reason gives me strength


When I feel a pang of the unpleasant, when someone doesn't respond, when things don't go my way.


I remember that this moment can grow my tolerance for this sensation in my body.


I can breath it, I can expand it in my body, I can focus on the physicality - and suddenly it becomes fascinating.


Have you tried this?
