Tolerate

Tolerate is a word describing the art of eating chocolate. More specifically the Toblerone chocolate, tolerate translates directly to mean "ate a Toblerone".

Well maybe not, But, would you tolerate someone else eating your Toblerone.

Through this post you might have to tolerate me. It will probably read like I am speaking against you. The truth is, I am speaking for the children of your children.You very well may not like the tone I give out with this post. You will however tolerate the enslavement of your family in future times. So much focus on the self and the present, the future is written by another's pen for us.

A song by the Manic Street Preacher's highlights the same thing. Not everything should be tolerated. Not everything is a right we have because we had the thought. We are not entitled that everyone should live the way we would like them to. By all the rules we think they should live by. Yet we tolerate the rules a selected few make for the rest of the world.

How long will we tolerate a flawed system. When the the reasoning behind one thing is because it is okay to do something else.
The song begins with if it The segregation that is happening through division of Nations. We tolerate the creation of war, in turn this causes a dismemberment of people through migration of the people. The countries these people will enter for safety away from the war zone, will eventually be canvassed for a change to the way the society has run. This will happen through the entitlement of rights under the nations laws. A division of the nation is then at hand. People from different backgrounds fight for alternative ways to life. The advantages of war to keep many nations divided is calculated and used too frequently these days. The wars are for the mineral resources available in the land.

An example of how things progress is then given to say if it is okay to shoot one thing then it should be okay to shoot something else. Regardless of what each thing is. My own opinion on weapons is. If it is not used for the hunting of food. It should not be used. for those who may enjoy the sport of shooting, Target games can be put in place to accommodate. The argument that it is not the same as shooting game. Only rings out alarm bells that the person enjoys killing.

Some things are not acceptable. One of those is this generations shredding of responsibility to the future. This is fuelled by lack of opportunity we as a society provide for the individual. Let's not shed the blame and accept responsibility and correct things. Let's grow to provide.

Ultimately it states that the more we just tolerate from those who control the rules/laws/guides by. The more control a select few will have over our children's rights to life.

Maybe some here just tolerate me. I have not been flagged to death. I do know many have read words I type and they do not speak often kindly on the surface. Maybe they do read and see it is not them I speak against. It is more an alternative method I speak for. Maybe they tolerate me as much as I will tolerate them when the roles are reversed.

Well, you can dislike something and let it be. Or the majority of us can at least. We can admire something and not process it. Again the majority of us can.

I also must tolerate that bulbs will stop working at the most inconvenient times. They never stop working in the day time. Its always the night time when it gets dark. Something spooky going on there.

Tolerating my own frustrations. This I have to do daily, Well not daily but often through the week. It is becoming a bit more frequent too. The shop manager is asking more and more about what I do on Steem. This shop owner is on the verge of accepting a Crypto to the shop. (on a trial basis). This is something that is needed. Yet I do not have the support from the Steem community, to provide for a local community to take advantage of. Thus recruitment of people to a Steem economy is hindered, to myself at least.

I have numerous accounts signed up who have an interest in using Steem in their daily life. The do not use the platform though. The main reason for this is there is no use for Steem in their daily lives. They get by without it now. There is no local amenities that will accept the token.

We need to provide and no longer tolerate this lack of amenities available to utilise Steem. We need to put out in order to bring in. This can be done by giving out in both the physical world and our Steem Eco system. Both are needed as an investment technique by a Steem investment. Investing in just one side is leaving to much to chance and only those who will out perform those already here, would invest.

Why does no one try to put any provision in place for those who are already here now. While we are not the best success story. Many out there are less fortunate than I have been. Still find it hard to gain any growth. The same growth rate will become harder over time. Again here, the toleration of doing nothing, relying on others to do what is needed is the problem.

It is true that most of us when we look at our circumstance there is very little we can do to make a change. More often the value of what can be done is measured by specialised equipment. It adds up though. That is what we need to do. Many of us focus our effort to one thing and grow it. If you can tolerate me being at the head of the project. Giving the direction and the how to. The value of Steem can gain a greater accuracy prediction for Steem Economy.

I can see Steem working in the physical. I can see it growing in use by requested expansion. They say first in best dressed, we can be the first in. I don't think that means first to the event, first to the tailor gets the best materials.

I have now a small network of people willing to try out the use of Steem in the physical world. The complications we will have to over come in certain areas can only be done when met. We can endeavour to ensure none arise. There will be manipulations we will need to over come to keep things fair for everyone.

An additional thing which is needed is Steem traders. Any of you out there wanting to trade your goods for SBD will have an opportunity to do so. Starting with small items, a warehouse of goods can be built up over time. Making use of the local shop willing to try to use Steem on a limited trial range of products. These are products we would have to provide.

The use of fresh produce for this would need a local supplier. I am thinking of things which can come from anywhere. It does not have to be a local community that gets the support back from this project, This support is wanted to be spread throughout the Steem Economy in various ways.

We can do this through the use of non perishable items. Not exactly what you might expect from a corner shop. But Working with the #SteemSilverGold community. We could find a way to provide something for the shop. This is just one thing and not the limitation of what we can do. Mentioned merely as an example. While the shop will not sell this token it can use it in it's annual Christmas raffle. Raffle's can be organised throughout the year for various things if we are successful with the first.

This does not directly profit any big stake holder with an instant reward. It could be the main reason none get involved. Idea's from small time stake holders will only be used were profit return is instant and numerous. Rewarding a whole community for the stake one built up, The stake holder wants more. Blind to the fact getting this more restricts future earnings in value.

So yes! I say you are wrong to tolerate what is. Because you do not have the ability to change it alone, is not good enough. You have the power to change things. The power to change things lies in you joining together with another to build a common support system. Once support is there, both projects can begin and grow.

Trust comes into play here though and who can you trust to have the best interests of you and the Steem Economy in mind. Raises hand.

Almost feels like I could swap out tolerance with complacency. If speaking about tolerance though then something is inherently wrong. It does not always helpful to have a call to arms and sit with 1000 useless protestors where a few good soldiers can silently do what is required. Then again I just think the voices of many are usually just screeching. The vid did not want to play for me, here is another link :)
