I am unable to visualize someone who is
consumed by hatred. It shakes me up. It is not an intrinsic quality of the
soul. I think we all know that.
We could link hatred with karma. We could
also link it to a thorough discomfort of being in your own skin which results
in comparisons..and we invariably find a lack within. There could be a
possibility of extreme jealousy, of feeling small and worthless in comparison
with "better" people. More successful people. More passionate and
driven people. More popular people.
But the lengths humans can go to, to
appease themselves and calm their hatred inspired rage and vendetta can be very
unsettling and disturbing.
It would be far too simplistic to say that
everything in life should be "hunky dory" and harmonious all the
time. If that were the case, we would be a group of saints on the earth.
We are here definitely to experience the positivity’s
and negativities, the pluses and minuses of life. And learn from them. But
nothing is worth causing self destruction through the kind of negativity that
can be created by hatred. It is the fire that burns and destroys like nothing
else does.
