Much healing must be the person's own idea. Even if it were like to be their own idea and someone else pushed it upon them, people are likely to fail this way. They can become confused about whose motivation they are working for and can become resentful. Al anon 101.
scorpiosiren: hate is a very strong word if u hate someone that means they have hurt u in some way dislike disrespect are very different
I agree with you it is a very strong word and a strong emotion and hopefully we don't hate much in our lives but it is also a reality that at times we hate. There is not getting around our shadow sides either and although I tend to gloss things over and make nice there is a lot of hatred out there. When the terrorists hit that building with those planes I hated those men for doing that to so many different people. That is what this thread is for is to dialogue and have varying points of view and I believe in being authentic even when it isn't pretty.

i totally agree with u about the terrorists i think the whole world wud agree they hated wot happened and who done it i on the other hand wasnt thinking on such a scale i was linking it to ur average joe soap around the corner
thewall2: I also learned that WHEN I RESENT someone,,,they win,because they go to bed sleeping sound,and I'm the one making them live RENT FREE in my head.
Not worth it.
thats why its better to dislike someone and not bother with wot they do then we all have a good nights sleep

Okay I will quit being devil's advocate here is one of my favorite quotes.
'If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.' Henry Wadworth Longfellow
petalbabe: I DO care what people think of me, yes. Im not afraid to admit that, either..
As regards CS, I get hurt by insults on here just as much as I do in real life. Perhaps I shouldnt, but I do.
I dont expect to be liked by everyone all the time, and I dont live my life trying to please others all the time either, but I do get upset if someone is nasty toward me; I dont think I would be human if I didnt. Some people say they dont give a fig what people think of them on here; I find that quite hard to believe really, but there you go.
As I say, there will always be some that take irrational dislikes to you, or even rational ones, if they dont agree with your views, but what can you do? But in general, Id hate to think that someone hated me..
I agree. I dont mind being disliked or people disagreeing with me, but hated by someone i've never met. Well it says more about them than i.
