My thoughts

Hate.

What's that mean?

The definition of hate is: to dislike somebody or something intensely: to dislike somebody or something intensely, often in a way that evokes feelings of anger, hostility, or animosity.

There has been an awful lot of this feeling circulating lately. I don't know why and I don't know why, as adults, it has to be expressed in the manner it has been, but, it's there.

Hater.

That is something people claim NOT to be, but then they spew hate.

So, what IS a hater?

The definition of a hater is: A person that simply cannot be happy for another person's success. So rather than be happy they make a point of exposing a flaw in that person. Hating, the result of being a hater, is not exactly jealousy. The hater doesnt really want to be the person he or she hates, rather the hater wants to knock somelse down a notch.

Haters hating. Haters saying they aren't haters. Innocent people being picked apart for being who they are. All of it is getting ridiculous and, quite honestly, exhausting.

I was recently told by a dear friend of mine that "I have to step away because my skin isn't thick enough for all this." That broke my heart.

I have other friends who consistently apologize for being attacked by haters. WHY are THEY apologizing?? The ones spreading the lies and anger should be apologizing and ceasing their childish banter! These GOOD people should not be apologizing!

Now, some of my more elevated sisters, those that want to forgive everyone, would disagree with my next statement, but I'm going to say it anyway.

Haters are NOT good people.

No. They are not.

I know those of you who will cringe at my statement and sigh and shake your heads at me. I know you look for good in everyone, but, haters are NOT good. They lost their "goodness" somewhere along the way. They, frankly, have lost their way. They don't know how to interact properly with the rest of the human race.

They need a Time Out.

They need no one to listen to their sewage.

They need the audience to disappear.

They need alot, in my opinion, but Twitter is not where they're going to find it.

I won't leave Twitter and my sisters won't leave Twitter. Even with the hate.

You wanna know why?

Because...WE are stronger than the haters. WE are stronger than the hate. And, we have something the haters lack.

We have love.

Damn, that sounds so hokey and simple, but it's not.

We have it. They don't. And, I'm a little sad for them. But, not sad enough to care about what they have to say.

With that...I am going to close my laptop and spend some time with my family now that the soccer game is over and they're done yelling ;)

Have a good one...even you haters. LOVE!
