Our hearts yearn for the future, yet the present is always filled with sorrow: everything is temporary, fleeting, and what passes away will become dear. Beethoven said, "Teach your children 'virtue'! What brings happiness is virtue, not money—that is my experience. What supported me in hardship was virtue; what kept me going was virtue as well, apart from art." Tolerance is a virtue, one of the most important virtues in human behavior. Tolerating others and being kind to yourself are signs of personal maturity and symbols of social civilization.
