Nov 16 marks the International Day for Tolerance, an annual observance declared by UNESCO in 1995 to generate public awareness about the need for tolerance in society.

Tolerance is not only about tolerating others' behaviors, but also respecting and recognizing rights and beliefs of the others and being open-minded to different ideas and cultures.

As we mark this international day, will you tolerate something that you did not before? Are you a tolerant person?
