Hatred

Author's Note: In this piece I decided to write on something that comes over everyone in a point in life; hatred. It's a brief explanation of what I feel this is in our lives. I've talked about how it can break things apart. Please pay attention to the voice and similes in this short, but thoughtful piece about hatred. 

Hatred, a feeling of rage and intensity rising up your throat. With a life full of darkness and a world full of strong opinions, hatred shall never be forgotten. The emotion of hatred comes with a little love at times. Without a little love in life, there can never be hatred, and vice versa. A mind of full of deep thoughts and powerful emotions can overcome people, but that does not mean they should be left alone. This does not only hurt the hated, but at the end it only injures the hater. People just throw the word love around everywhere, but they do this to the word hate too. “I hate...” this phrase is really strong, it should only be used in a place full of thought. The way to use it is still uncertain to people all around, but just remember it will soon cause problems and pain in many people’s lives. Hatred is not just a word that can show your emotions, but it can break things apart. It’s like a world without erasers; after it’s been said or done, then that’s it. There is nothing to erase it or take back. What has been done is done, and that’s final. Love and hate are enemies fighting for justice, but sometimes loves does win. Think about others and learn to not hate things. Like Mr. Luther King Jr. once said “Hatred paralyses life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.” So love more and hate less, we can make a difference in our lives, one step at a time.
