Why hate? We each have the most beautiful choice in each moment. Each moment we have the decision to make with our intent, thoughts, and actions which can be either from a place of love or hate. Why choose hate?
Hate comes from insecurities, fear, pain, and unresolved anger. We have to look within and ask why the response, thought, or intent was one of hate. We each are given such power and that power can be love. From love growth, healing, and empowerment springs. Choosing love is a courageous act. This is why the insecure choose hate. Their insecurity within ripples throughout their thoughts, actions, and intent driving them toward hate.
People filled with hate want this to spread further. They gain justification when you hate, when you share your hate. Do not respond in anger toward those with hate, pity the person who chose hate over something as pure as love. They condemn their own lives into the servitude of self-loathing and propagating animosity. Their joy is witnessing the pain of another. They are lost in their blind hatred and nothing but their own internal realization will save the lost. They often do not want to be saved because they are so foregone in their anger.
We are experiencing a horrible time in history and one where so many suffer from pain which they then thinks justifies their hate. It does not. If you are in pain, to opt for love is the most beautiful and healing response. It is so easy to hate another when in pain due to that person. Your pain is justified. Heal from it. Then let it go. Let them go. A person who loves and respects you will apologize and mend things, and if they do not, let them go without hate. It will become a prison of your own choice if you choose hate. You do not need to love the person who caused this pain, instead direct all that pain you have and channel it into love for those you trust.
To the people in pain, I am truly sorry for your anguish. My love to you, and may you heal in your time. Please choose love.
There are people who promote hate as part of their persona, but the sadness of a life that attempts to benefit from attacking, dehumanizing, or harassing other people is a life built on the pain of others. Cruelty brings them happiness. In order to justify the cruelty, they spread insecurities to justify their actions and their hate. They need an audience to find justification in their hate. They want others to rage with them from their shared insecurity while never actually addressing them. Instead of addressing the internal source of their anger, they hurt people to regain the power they lack that they are insecure over.
It is difficult to talk with people that have such hatred. Acknowledging any of their actions or taking any form of responsibility is impossible for them because that takes a person who is secure in themself to admit they have hurt another person. That is being humble and compassionate, and those two actions take a confident person. It is rare for someone to own their actions. Those are the people you want next to your side. When the response to accountability is triggered defiance, gaslighting, lies, and dependent to what level of vehemence in the delivery, really defines the amount of hatred within that person. Of course that can be said if they cannot give their hatred up and continue in their hatred for years. It is a prison so hard to exit once you have chosen the bars of constant loathing. It also can be said that some do not want to leave this prison of hate, they find comfort in their cell.
Give people with hate space. They need time. Actions are inescapable, the world lets no one forget. This realization is something people with deep hate have to come to on their own. Let them know you have hope for them. Not every person will come to terms with their hate, and that is their path that they have chosen, and let them go. For the people in my life that I have had to let go, they know the door is always open to them when they have healed and live in a life of love. I have hate for no one, just such hope that they may someday see the beautiful world they are so terrified of. If they do not heal and stay in a place of hate for their life, I have nothing but sorrow for them. That is a sad and burdensome life to choose.
Be courageous and choose love, always.
Sending my love to Palestine. Your bravery and love will lead to justice.
