Love and Hate

Yes, because what is one without the other? The relationship is based on a relative concept. Love is the complete absence of hate, and in return hate is the complete absence love.

Strong Words

Love and hate elicit strong passionate responses on opposite sides of the scale. Yet this scale is cyclical; therefore, you can love someone so much you hate them or hate someone so much you love them (or at the very least have sex).

There are Lovers and Haters

But they all do what they do because they love it.

Love and Hate

So then, another challenge and another interesting question, but what is its answer?

Love and Hate are two brothers from the same family, and that family's name is Emotion.

We as humans do like to see ourselves as Emotional Masters of the Universe do we not? Yet we are, and always have been, slaves to them. Likened to a Yin and Yang of our existence as we sail across the sea of our lives, do we not occasionally run into storms? And do we not also enjoy balmy days when the sailing is good?

Perhaps the trick is not to fear one and love the other but to steer a course between the two and treat both as the impostors they are, and neither to be trusted.

Some folk are highly strung and given to high peaks and deep troughs of emotion, I am one such person (and I bear the scars), while others seem neither here nor there and often are detached from love and hate.

Like I said, whatever dice rolled in your favour, steer your course as best you can, and treat these brothers as they deserve.

Some hate to love, and some love to hate.

Love and Hate

There is no love without hate.

If there was no hate there would be no meaning for love,

The reason we have love is to hope to never have hate.

Without those two major feelings we would not have any feeling. Nothing would matter no one would matter,

There would be no meaning to life without love or hate,

We need love but without hate there is no love.
