LOVE IS HOPE, HATRED IS HOPLESS

Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness,

In the union of love I have seen

In the mystic miniature the prefiguring vision,Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined

-Bertrand Russell

What is LOVE?? Love is an emotional state of joy and acceptance-

dictionary of psychology.

Truly Love is a very deep feeling which differentiates human from animals.

Hope is a shadow of love. It follows love throughout. Hope is the most

exciting thing in life, and if you honestly believe love is out there, it will

come. Love is a sublime feeling that slowly transforms the way of thinkingand inculcates the feeling of confidence and faith in oneself. Love is free, it

percolates all the boundaries of caste, creed, nation and religion. Love

believes in impossible. The moment love truly touches the strings of our

souls, we become more caring, more optimist and more sharing. Love

illuminates our lives and makes it worth living. love is a potent instrument of

reconciliation, in a world where individuals strive to live a serene and

balanced existence love helps to overcome confines of intolerance and

gently creates the environment of patience , respect and acceptance of

differences. Love is the carrier of Hope lighting the pathway to

reconciliation, often obviating its need altogether. Hatred an the other handwith its indifference, to the appeal of reconciliation is hopeless. Hatred

inculcates extremism and is the cause of mental suffering. It takes away

peace of mind and constantly burns the blood of the beholder.

The feeling of love creates the feeling of likeness

and appreciation for all the living beings. It is a powerful instrument to

spread brotherhood and peace in the world. Hatred on the other hand has

always been a cause of human disaster and has taken away innocent lives in

the past and is also taking away in present world. World wars were the

extreme example of hatred, and in present scenario terrorism is nothing butthe hatred for mankind. Terrorism is wrapped with hopelessness and hatred.

Hope comes to those who know to love,

Despair comes to those who have lost hope,

And hatred is the child of despair

-E.Y.Rodes

2/2

Love helps to overcome all the despairs; it instills brotherhood and

coexistence of everyone in the world. It nourishes good thoughts and soul. It

is aptly the food of soul and music of heart. Hate on the other hand kills the

soul and transforms a human into beast. It is creates self pity. It takes away

the happiness from life and leaves the individual without hope, faith and

trust thereby putting a question mark over an individuals serene existence.

The opposite of love should not be hatred but indifference, for hatred in the

extreme form takes away the soul of individual and makes the live

miserable. Hatred never believes in coexistence and thus creates misbalance

in the society.

Man as a social animal strives for social acceptance

which is the driving force of all what a person does. In the absence of love

the social acceptance is not possible. People strive for social recognition and

affection which are all byproducts of love. Hatred in all the forms is devoid

of acceptance , it not only takes away hope but also leaves an individualwithout the reason of peaceful existence.
