Hatred is a terribly destructive emotion. I thought at one point that it could be good at times, or justified at times, but I don't think so any more. I think hate is terribly, terribly negative and no amount of justification will ever make it ok. I hate the fact that I hate. Is that irony?
We all say we hate things from time to time. "I hate spinach!" "I hate boys!" "I hate girls!" "I hate you!" How often do we really mean them? I know I've used it casually many a time - "I hate the Eagles" "I hate Pillsbury" "I hate stupid people" and I've rarely meant it as such. It's silly and stupid.
I hate very few things, I think. But I think I hate her. Sigh.
