Hate ? Love ?


What is the meaning of those words?

There is no meaning unless we define it.

So why not define love with the definition of hate and hate with loves.

Why must we give meaning to these words ?

Why must we experience these ?

If we had no hate would we be able appreciate love?

If we had no love would we think there is something wrong with hate ?

Instead of experiencing these emotions and acting out because of them let us be kind.

If we feel hate towards another let us be kind instead.

Why must there be opposite sides of the spectrum?

Why cant we all be kind?

Why must there be negative emotion?

Because without the other, without the yin to the yang, there would be no variation in this world. 

We would all be the same. 

With opposite emotions we learn to be thankful for our differences.
