Hate Hole

It’s my sense that some of the most stuck people on earth are stuck in a “hate hole.”

Look at your friends on social media. Is there any doubt about the ones steeped in hate? Also notice that they’re stuck in life.

And they blame their “stuckness” on someone else. If you want to bond or influence these folks, give them someone or something to blame for their station in life and you’ll have a friend for life, albeit a hateful one.

I don’t know a foolproof way to extricate yourself from this abyss, just the following suspicion.

Open yourself to the possibility that there’s something more redeeming than hatred. You don’t have to own this position, just explore it. You can always go back to hating if you choose.

Looking at life from another angle is the mindset to adopt to begin the process of climbing out of this hellhole. This new angle of view gives you an appreciation that there are other ways to go. 

If you can just get a glimpse of your culpability in keeping hate in place, you have a leg up on all the other haters. Sadly, most people won’t adopt a new perspective and stay in their hole. You don’t have to. If you’re tired of looking up from the bottom, stop digging. 

Just entertain the notion that giving up hate is a magic potion – one that puts your extrication from that "Hate Hole" in motion.

All the best,

John
