You may not realize it, but you are doing
much more than just studying when you are at school. The school is also the
place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What
can you do if you just don't like one of your classmates?
If you discover that you have problems
getting on with your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is
tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in
others. We can not change the differences, so it is important to learn to live
happily with them.
Tolerance will make everyone get on better with
each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things
differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad.
Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.
You need to remember an old saying, "Treat
others how you want to be treated." When you tolerate something, it does
not mean that you have to like it. No one will ask you to change who you are or
what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the
differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to practice tolerance,
because it will make everyone's life easier. Learn to accept people for their different
abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance
in your own school and city can help make a difference.
