I am happy

To have been of help...

For the record, I never read all posts in a thread such as this. I try not to get too wrapped up in the bickering and just, for the most part, make observations and comments based upon the posts I do read.

That said, I do not know about the discontent and bitterness you felt in others posts, but find it hard to understand how those translate to "hate". But then that is me... I "hate" nothing and will challenge anyone who uses the term around me, only using it myself to ask another why they chose to.

"Hate" is a very powerful word with absolutely no good intent.

We all have a great deal of spiritual growth ahead of us... it is, after all a journey, not a destination. Learning to leave that one term far behind you is a VERY good step forward in your spiritual growth. Something to look forward too and strive for :-)

Try gratitude instead.

Have the best day ever my friend. I am grateful for the opportunity to have had this exchange with you.
