'Hate! Make me strong.' is line from Jean-Claude van Damme's starred movies 'Hell'. This was from a prisoner who shared a cell with him. However, as the movie went on, it proved that the very 'hate' he was not ashamed of articulating was actually love.
This inference, I have come to equate with my concurrent feelings with regard to people I come to contact with. (Here, I'm not referring to anyone whom I have a saliva and tongue relationship like). In the movie, A beautiful mind, John Nash, a mathematical genius of his own, said to his apparently hallucinatory friend,'I don't like people much, but I also noticed that people do not like me much, so it's a back to back situation.' What that can translate to, as far as I would like to understand, is that I do not think it's coincidence that I happen not to like people much. Despite the understanding, I ask myself, just like Jacob Zuma(ANC President) has possible asked, in an interview with the City Press, 'Why do people hate me so much?' I do, however, has not experienced a public obloquy, as him. This is an instinctive conjecture that I would further like to critically find its merits. In many instances,I came to realise that my truth telling nature often get people asking what kind of person I am. The ability to answer questions with sharp opinion is not really my strong point but I'm working hard to improve my communication qualities. I will be, from now on, thinking my character than acting my character. In other words, I would like to spend more time thinking than acting because my actions sometimes get me into trouble, even when the petty troubles I get into are somewhat odd to me. Here it's not to say I have no understanding that my views can be different from others but I think different views should not constitute a dislike to someone.
As a tactful, subtle and sometimes, ruthless person being hated doe s not concern me, although I have not find any basis to prove that people hate me.
The writing on the wall might seemingly be fear which has manifested itself in me. I have found it blissfully geniune to regard the hate as natural jealousy that my character tend to attract from people.
So writing in the wall need not be an issue.
