Is it possible to love deeply & hate @ the same time? My Grandmother always told me, "you can only hate someone that you truly love." I often wonder how true that is.
When someone hurts you (family or friend), I mean REALLY hurt you, there's a part of you that begins to HATE them so much. Further, there's something that begins to stir, to burn deep in side you that wants to see them hurt as much as you hurt.
It's not until you've reached this point that you realize how much of your heart a person (recklessly) held in the palm of their hands. But, when all emotions are calmed & things are still, you remember the LOVE that you have for them, the love that supercedes all.
