If you are holding onto something as ugly and painful as hate, your mind must be a terribly cluttered place to live.
However, I’ve found hate is less common than you might think.
Take a moment the next time you think “I hate…” or “I hate it when…”, and ask yourself if hate is really the right word for what you’re feeling. Or is it really frustration? Or annoyance, resentment, sadness, hurt, or any other painful feeling?
When you stop using the word “hate” you become more truthful with yourself.
