Where to go with all the hatred?- Ways out of hatred

Where to go with all the hatred?

 

I hate

you hate

everyone hates

something or someone.


Why all that?

Where does all that lead to?

Where does it all come from?

How do we get rid of it again?


Hatred produces counter hatred.

It escalates more and more.


Out of small disagreements

grows turmoil in a whole country

and even wars between nations.


What good does that do?


Don’t we realize

what we cause by it?


Where to go with all the hatred?

Does no one know a way out?

What else do we want to ruin?

Who else do we want to destroy?


That does not make anything

good and right again.


It makes everything only worse.

One revenge leads to the next.


What good does it do

when the whole world

goes crazy and rages

because everyone freaks out

due to little causes?


We only get out

of this vicious circle

by being gracious,

practicing forgiveness,

and countering evil with good.


How this is done practically

and how it works long term

can be read in the Bible.

It is God’s path

out of our hatred

and our irreconcilability.

Leviticus 19:17–18

You shall not hate your kinsfolk in your heart. Reprove your kinsman but incur no guilt because of him. 17 You shall not hate your kinsfolk in your heart. Reprove your kinsman but incur no guilt because of him.

The second problem - PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)

The second problem I have a problem, or so I thought for a long time. Something bothered me immensely. Whether it was: suffering, illness,  injustice, bullying, abuse, loss, or anything else that threw me off track, what's certain is that the pain of it was etched into my mind. I got incredibly upset about it, simmered with anger and resentment, shrouded myself in self-pity and depression, occupied myself with all sorts of distractions, and did all sorts of things to try and get rid of the pain. Soon I realized that the thought about my problem had become lodged inside me, like a bird that has built a nest  in my tree. I'm starting to brood over the negative feelings. Day and night, they give me no peace. I'm getting so worked up about this terrible situation that I'm constantly preoccupied with all sorts of possible and even impossible scenarios. Soon, I'm experiencing increasing difficulty concentrating. Coping with everyday tasks becomes more and m...

Information about the posts in March 2026

All posts posted in March 2026 have a specific order to them. I have placed them in 3 different categories: 1. The Problems 2. The Considerations 3. The Solutions Posts, that will be posted after March 2026 do not have this order, but will be posted randomly only sorted by the time they were posted. It is my hope, that the reader realizes, that he/she is not the only one struggling with a certain problem. I have spent much effort going into the depth of each problem with the hope that the reader can identify with it. Over time I have come to realize that the way we react to problems in principle is timeless. We all get stuck with the same or similar reactions. At the beginning those reactions are rather unproductive or even destructive.  It is my goal to not only honestly write about different problems, but also give the reader, who is seeking solutions good thoughts to consider. I do wish for each reader to read the lyrics with an open mind and contemplate what is wr...

When the soul cries out - Emotional pain

When the soul cries out   When the soul cries out then the head is full with pain. When the soul cries out then it is obvious that you cannot concentrate. When the soul cries out then the everyday routines become difficult. When the soul cries out then any contacts with the outside world become more and more difficult. When the soul cries out then you become more impatient with yourself and others. When the soul cries out then you need a lot of love and comfort  in order to heal again.     (1606121555-1912,1706120737-0747)     Psalm 147:3 (The Israel Bible) He heals their broken hearts, and binds up their wounds.
