Love is Hate

I was with a friend the other day and she told me she hated someone. A friend of another friend. Someone that we never really have dealt with. You know how that goes. Well anyways she said she hated her and I said no you don't. You just don't like that she acts like that. She stated again that she HATES this girl. Strong on her beliefs that were on a very weak foundation. I said to her that you can't hate something that you never have loved. You can only hate something as much as you have loved it in the past. Do you believe this? I do! Let me explain. To hate something you must understand it. If you don't understand it than you are ignorant to the real reason as to why you think you hate. The highest level of understanding and/or accepting something is love. To love, you have the highest regard for something and understand it or them on many different levels. When something or someone changes from this or hurts you, you then hate everything that you once loved. Everything that you once understood has no gone array. Your feelings of confusion, sense of being lost and the aggravation of change then evolve to hate. That is after you have loved.
