You may feel open-minded and liberal today, which could give you a more profound understanding of those with differing beliefs. You may also find yourself identifying with others whose beliefs are being challenged because of the ways your beliefs have been challenged in the past. You may find it rewarding to devote time to the promotion of tolerance today. Whether you do so on a small scale in your daily travels or volunteer your time to a large organization, your efforts could help to educate and inspire others to be more open-minded also. In all of your interactions with others, you may want to set a positive example by demonstrating the behavior you wish to encourage in others. Without saying a word, you may be the motivating force that inspires long-term change around you.

We can encourage greater compassion and understanding in others by consciously acting in ways that will inspire and motivate them to do the same. Our actions can often speak more loudly than our words, especially in situations that may incite arguments or resistance to change. Rather than trying to convince others to change their behaviors, we can simply choose to let our actions serve as a powerful example of what is possible. Our willingness to accept and embrace others for who they are, regardless of the differences between us, places a greater emphasis on our similarities and encourages others to do the same. Expressing your compassion and tolerance for others today can usher in positive changes that make the world a better place.
