Love, Hatred, and Disappointment

Love, Hatred, Disappointment “Loving someone who doesn’t love you back is like hugging a cactus; the tighter you hold on the more it hurts.” Love can be a wonderful thing, but also can be a very hard challenge to overcome. It can turn from love to hatred without any warning. Most of the time when love turns into hatred it followed by disappointment. How can love something so delightful turn out to be hatred that is so cold and bitter and disappointment that is harsh and hard to comprehend? Love is one of the most wonderful feelings that a person can have in their life, but yet at the same time it can become very cold and bitter. “I love anther, and thus I hate myself” as quoted in “I Find No Peace, and All My War is done” by: Francesco Petrarch. (pg. 57) Love can be warm and calming if treated with respect. It is embracing in the special times of need when things go down the wrong path of life. When love is disrespected it gets turned into hatred. Hatred is a tuff part of love that is cold and bitter. It is a hard road to follow, and also hard to overcome. “That looseth nor locket, holdeth me in prison, and holdeth me not, yet can I ‘scape nowise” by: Francesco Petrarch. (pg. 57) Hatred is a harsh way to end something as precious as love. Love and hatred are two words that should be kept separate, even though they get put together. For one is gentle and warming and the other is cold and bitter. There is one more word that is put with these two words that is also harsh and bitter disappointment. Disappointment happens at some time in everyone’s life. Love and hatred most of the time leads to disappointment. To know that someone is loved, but there is no love in return is hard to comprehend and harsh. “I fly above the wind, yet can I not arise” by: Petrarch. (pg. 57) Love, hatred, and disappointment
