Love vs Hate
Powerful emotions right?
You are the leader of a country.
People hate you, they fear you, they don’t respect you.
They kill you. No mercy, nor honor
You are the leader of a country.
People love you, they respect you, they look up to you.
They fight devotedly for you.
You are leader until you die. They remember you and honor
you.
It’s easy to see why love and hate are so powerful. But
using emotional power for good rather than evil goes a long way. When trees
grow from seeds they start off small. Think apple seeds, but then they grow,
they grow tall, very large, they grow into trees. (If you eat apples and your
mouth tingles, you have an allergy so be safe. I have an apple tree and couldn’t
eat any apples but I still love them). The message: plant good seeds and
hopefully good things will grow. When you plant bad things like poison ivy, that
will also grow. Message here: be careful what you plant. Seeds grow. Good seeds
can go bad with bad care. Take care of your seeds. Don’t be a lover and a
hater. Be purely of love. Jump into love like water in a pool and let it
surround you. Feed people like the apple, dont make people cry and itch like poison ivy.
PLANT GOOD SEEDS, WATER THOSE SEEDS, GROW GOOD SEEDS!!!!!!
I love you,

My friend recently asked me whether people are inherently bad or good. I wasn't really sure how to answer the question. I just knew what I learned from my parents growing up and that was to be good; be helpful, loving, respectful, thankful, and so on. My friend started to go into how she's tried to be a good person but it always seems that she gets taken advantage of in some way. And that the world seems like it's full of bad people. I kind of agree with that but to be more specific, selfish people. I feel like we are at a constant battle of wanting to be good but being put into situations where we are intrigued by the idea of being bad. Sometimes it is so tempting but like you said bad seeds like poison ivy only spread unhappiness. And good seeds can go bad with bad care, so everyone needs to maintain theirs seeds. Grow a garden an make everyone happy. Also I feel that it is so easy to be unhappy that everyone is in that place all of time but once someone smiles, and I mean a good tooth-filled smile, at another person it spreads like wild fire.
