Love and Hate
Hate is not for your enemies. Hate is only for yourself. This is not advice, a creed, an ideological standpoint, or a way of looking at things: it is a truth. A fact. Those that threaten us are our enemies, but because they have the power to threaten us, they deserve our respect. Hate, whatever its target, always turns out to be self-directed. That’s all the nature of going. The law, Love, GOES- and so it must unite with the new. That’s love. The union of one thing or event with another thing or event. Hate is a turning away. When you turn away from the NEW, you can only turn to the OLD. And that means that you turn to some part of yourself, what has been digested already, and replace your potential experience of the new with an experience of THAT.
I’d love to say that hate rocks. Not because I’m really hateful, but because I like going against the flow. I’m the kind of guy who would just love to love to hate. But, as hard as I try, I can’t. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. And hate is the worm that devours itself. Love is the serpent that surges through the stars...
Ugh. Actually, now that we're on the subject, I hate myself right now.
