Author’s Note: I wrote a piece on love and now I
wanted to do the opposite. Write about hate, this is a very strong word, and
its deep and dark. This piece is about how others hurt themselves more than
they hurt you when hating.
Life is one big road with lots
of signs. So when you are riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind.
Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your
vision to reality. Wake up and live! This is a feeling that everyone has to feel in life, and it
is not a pleasant feeling to have deep in your heart. I say what I want
to say and do what I want to do. There's no in between. People will either love
you for it or hate you for it.
Remember, always give your
best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Others may hate you, but those who hate you
don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself. This is a huge
part of living, I am young yet I have figured this out. Set aside the ones who
hate and bring forward the ones who really care. Destroying yourself won’t make
anything better, believe in the ones who can understand you. Many of my friends
don’t understand this yet, and that is what really destroys relationships
between friends.
Hate is too great a burden to
bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated. Even though we are deceived, still
believe. Though we are betrayed, still forgive. Love completely even those who
hate you. I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so
stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to
deal with pain. Darkness cannot drive out darkness:
only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
Although, we
have gone over and over what hate can be. Its different for everyone. Hate is
the extreme love of anything. As in love, we want to be with the loved one ,we
want to think feel the love object. Our ego is merged in the wholeness of being
with the person, or the object of love.
