I have a wonderful sister-in-law who shared some wisdom with me today. She explained three things about hate:
1. When you are filled with hate, you find the worst in a person or situation.
2. When you are filled with hate you want to be right and you will do anything to prove to yourself and others that you are.
3. When you are filled with hate your words and actions destroy both the relationship between you and the other person,and the person. Your thoughts and actions are destructive.
Conversely, here are three things about love:
1. When you are filled with love, you find the good in people and look for their positive attributes.
2. When you are filled with love you are not concerned about being right.
3. When you are filled with love you are building relationships and you are building up people. Through your words and actions you lift and encourage.
Her comments helped me to see more clearly certain life situations I am dealing with.
