You could be searching for knowledge that expands your awareness of the world, which may make you more tolerant of differing ideas today. Being accepting of other viewpoints might help you to recognize that even though many thoughts and ideas seem to conflict with each other, there is a universality that tends to underscore many belief systems in the world. If you can try to see the common threads that bind ideas that seem different from yours to your own today, you may find it easier to be open to learning about and expanding your worldview. It might be something simple - such as the idea that all of us are meant to love one another - that attracts you to an idea that you can examine further in order to explore and challenge your own strongly held beliefs.

Seeing the underlying oneness in everything makes us more open-minded and willing to search for universal truth in new ideas. There are times when we are inclined to close ourselves off from discovering something different; there is a fear that we will lose sight of the ideas we hold dear. Recognizing the core truth that lies at the heart of many beliefs and ideas, however, enables us to begin from a common ground and view differences through the lens of understanding and compassion. Tolerance and openness will infiltrate your life today when you become consciously aware of the shared connections and truths that exist in the world.
