I personally have been driven by rage and anger at the DS for a long time now. It seeped into my thought processes and turned me bitter and resentful. I imagine many of you feel this way as well. I want to tell you that there is a better way.
Many of the people we consider evil are simply victims themselves. While most of us were born into a family that loves you, these cult members were born into families and situations where it was either kill or be killed. Abuse or be abused. Many of them were abused their entire lives. They adapted to completely different social circumstances than us.
With that in mind, I am going to make a conscious effort to love my enemy. To truly understand and forgive them. To show them that we are all one under God and accept them back into the fold when they tire of fighting.
I hope you'll join me in pushing this message instead of one of violence, vengeance, and death.
Lately, I have forced myself to ask -- "who hurt you?" Not to blame but to understand WHY people act the way they do--understanding the WHY helps us potentially undo the damage, but prevent it from happening in the first place
People stopped their ancestors from taking over the world. Those are the people that "hurt" them.
