Well…sitting here on a relatively melancholy day and a thought came to me about how much hate is in the world these days…it seems like everyone hates everyone except those in their own little group…evangelicals hate the gays, the right hates the left, some on the left hate the right…some non-religious folks hate the religious ones, some religious folks hate we non-religious folks…workers hate business, business hates workers…different religions hate ones that aren’t them…you get my drift…but, my question is: ‘is there more hate or is it just more reported?” I fell into that hate trap a few years back and I can say it didn’t feel bad having that burning hate for GW Bush and his cronies  and even for the religious who were trying to force their religion on the country. It is easy to fall into that trap when you think you are right all the time and dismiss any other opinion…now, I’m not saying that all opinions carry the same weight…some are just wrong…like GW Bush was one of the best presidents in US history…this can be proven wrong by many measures…I guess what I’m saying is that since I got out of trying to prove everyone wrong that didn’t agree with me, my life has been so peaceful and my brain is not on fire anymore…I still do marvel at the stupidity and hate in the world abut I no longer feel that I have to do something about it…I look on it with bemusement…and amusement, but I don’t let it pollute me anymore….not sure what this one meant but I felt I had to say it….
