HATRED IS BITTER
Words from... Sherrilyn Kenyon
Hatred is a bitter, damaging
emotion. It winds itself through the
blood, infecting its host and driving
it forward without any reason. Its
view is jaundiced and it skews even
the clearest of eye sights.
Sacrifice is noble and tender. It’s
the action of a host who values
others above himself. Sacrifice is
bought through love and decency.
It is truly heroic. Vengeance is an
act of violence. It allows those who
have been wronged to take back
some of what was lost to them.
Unlike sacrifice, it gives back to
the one who practices it. Love is
deceitful and sublime. In its truest
form, it brings out the best in all
beings. At its worst, it’s a tool used
to manipulate and ruin anyone who
is stupid enough to hold it. Don’t be
stupid. Sacrifice is for the weak.
Hatred corrupts. Love destroys.
Vengeance is the gift of the strong.
Move forward, not with hatred, not
with love. Move forward with
purpose. Take back what was
stolen. Make those who laughed at
your pain pay. Not with hatred, but
with calm, cold rationale. Hatred is
your enemy. Vengeance is your
friend. Hold it close and let it
loose. May the gods have mercy on
those who have wronged me because
I will have no mercy for them.
And you???
