Hate, among all our base instincts, is the most distinctly human. In animals, violence and venom are tools of survival; in humans, of supremacy. Small, scared people hate, self-hating people hate, bullied and betrayed people hate, as though hate will make them large and safe and strong. | |

I choose to love people, not to judge them. I want to experience them as they are, not as I would want them to be. I want to grow with them, allowing each new moment to tell its own story, rather than perceive it as a product of our past. I want us to search together for fresh alternatives to our incompleteness, to our negativity, to our deception, to our fear and to our despair. I don’t want us to spend our lives thinking about life and change and celebration. Rather, I want us to spend our lives celebrating and living and changing. And I never want to forget what the wonderful author William Saroyan reminded me of many years ago: People is all everything is – all it has ever been, and all it can ever be. People. You and me. Together in love. | |
