We are more often frightened than hurt; and we suffer more from imagination than from reality.
“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing."
Seneca
We have nothing to fear , but fear itself...
I hate war.
Elenore hates war.
I hate Elenore.
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean people aren't really out to get you.
"I hate war.
Elenore hates war.
I hate Elenore."
Shouldn't that be the opposite?
Don't we like(agree with) people that hate the same things that we do?
Hate is dislike carried to an extreme. You wouldn't mind seeing what you hate destroyed.
I can't think of anything tangible that I dislike enough to want it destroyed. (No, not even brocolli.)
I almost wroite something political, but, no, let's not mess up another thread.
