Hatred has a way of being weirdly pleasurable... I can personally vouch for that, no I will not furnish details. Living in the love of God like I am doing now more and more is truly a paradise compared with this.

Hell is just a weird place, at least as weird as the entities that center around it are depicted at Halloween. C. S. Lewis said that if hell could be pure pleasure, that black pleasure would be such as to send any soul not already damned flying to its prayers in nightmare terror. (And I would add, shocked at itself.)

So very true.

It burns like fire, but like fire renders itself to ashes. I too, used to have a burning hatred(won't say either) until I realized it destroyed more than it created and what it did created me was poison. And more enemies than friends and these "friends" were not the sort of people I was raised to emulate.

I must confess I have "backside" into old habits here on FR in the beginning but(hopefully) have reined in my passions before they get to that point.

Love is so much more enriching
