"I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear."
I open this post with a quote from Dr. King. He was a man who lived his life in a very non violent, loving way. The quote above is excellent and I should really practice it myself. Should is a very important word. I have hate in my heart right now for my sister and brother in law. I hate them. I'm not supposed to hate, especially your own family, but I do. I prayed last night for the first time in a long time, I asked god to take this rage I have out of my heart, I asked him to bring peace to my soul again. I don't wish to hate. Unfortunately the emotion still lives inside of me.
So I have decided to cut out destructive influences in my life, the ones that cause this unsettling feelings in my soul. I cut out the the religion that was causing me bad feeling, next I will cut off my sister. I'm sorry. You may be family but you have broken me this weekend. Your words and actions have caused some sort of divide in my life that my love and I have spent the last day trying to fix. I hate you. I will try to learn from peaceful people like Dr. King. But for right now, I'm done with you.
