The King of my life... to give me motivation to continue studying for a course that I am bound to do badly in...---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Analogy of the day: Your Pet, Your Hatred.
A conversation with someone inspired me to come up with this analogy.
Hatred is like a pet. When you breed hatred in you, you just got yourself a pet.
This pet is evil. It feeds itself on others. What happens is that you make the people around you and yourself miserable. For what? Simply to let this pet grow stronger.
When you feed this pet with the food someone else gave you, the pet grows. If you try to stop it from growing by stopping that person from giving the food to you, it wouldn't work. Because the pet will develop an appetite for other food, provided by yet another person.
The only person to stop this pet from growing is you. Only you can let go of this pet. There is no way others around you can help you.
