This is a loaded question? Let’s first talk about what the word, “ Hatred “ truly means. Hatred is defined as an intense dislike. It may be a mutual resentment coming from racial hostility or animosity. Some refer to It as disgust or abomination. Hatred is associated with emotions including anger, shame and fear.

Hatred may be a learned response originating in external influences. It is a deep psychological response to feeling trapped or one’s inability to understand certain sociological phenomena. Hatred actually changes the chemistry in the brain and stimulates the pre-motor cortex. This, in turn, brings on thoughts of planning and executing motion. This may bring on thoughts of aggression as in attacking or defending.

A high school student tried out for a sports team. She was told for years that she excelled in soccer. She wasn’t chosen and was shocked. When she asked the coach about it, she had little to say. The student felt it was discrimination. She had thoughts of physically hurting the coach.

A woman was shunned suddenly by her friend group. She was excluded from all events. She found out later that a few of the spouses had a nasty disagreement and it had trickled down to their wives. She pleaded her case with great resentment. She felt even a sense of hatred that this was the way she was being treated by her friends.

A third woman was terminated from her job weeks before she was due a promotion. She had recently received a glowing review. It made no sense at all. She confronted her Supervisor and was told that it was a company decision. She entertained the thought of an aggressive act but wasn’t sure it would be smart!

Feelings of “ Hatred “ originate from wrong doing. It is a matter of degree and the impact an act may have! The intensity of the feeling and the built up resentment may determine one’s response!

Have you felt “ Hatred “ toward anyone or toward an event in your life?
Do you feel you handled it well?
Would you like to share some of your feelings?

Most of the time, this question remains unanswered. It is a Journey and it will have many twists and turns. Success is a journey and not a destination. There will likely be ups and downs, curves, highs and lows,etc. There will be times when traveling in one direction seems better than another. Other times, you may have no idea which road to take. This is all okay.

A young woman had always aspired to become an actress. She had starred in her theatre class and did very well. She signed up for an acting program and held her own. However, she met others who seemed more talented and became discouraged. Was she headed for success? It would be determined by her journey.

A woman was convinced she could help her eleven year old daughter in her pursuit for better vision. She had her evaluated by a renowned ophthalmologist. She may require several procedures due to the complexity of the problem. There is no guarantee of success. The journey will determine this.

A third woman planned a vacation which entails flying to Europe. She is concerned about flying due to the uncertainty of the world. She has been looking forward to going and has made many arrangements so this could happen. Many of her friends have weighed in but only she can decide. Following much thought, she decides to postpone her trip. She isn’t sure she feels safe.

Everyone makes tough decisions in the course of their life. When we look for a definite answer, we often become stuck. Perhaps the best idea is to give each one careful thought and make a decision. From there the journey begins! Time will only tell how the journey ends.

Do you agree with this approach?
Are you able to take a chance?
Does looking for the end get in your way?

The answer to this will vary from person to person. Many refer to Peace as a state of Harmony, Stability or Tranquility. Some might define it as Lack of War. Others think about it in reference to their mental state as in: Peace of Mind. When we refer to “ Peace of Mind, “ we may be thinking about calmness and lack of worry.

A 25 year old woman felt torn between her relatives. Those who did not like one another wanted her to take sides. She had difficulty dealing with this as none of them had wronged her. She was her own person and wanted to stay this way. Her peace would come from their respect and her not feeling she had to choose.

A 50 year old woman received a life threatening diagnosis. She was afraid and rightfully so. Her doctors told her that she would be okay. She tried but didn’t understand how they could know this. As years passed without a recurrence, she started to regain some stability. She found some degree of Peace in her good test results.

A third woman is presently without a feeling of Peace. As long as there is war and horrific violence in the world, she is unable to relax. Sometimes, she even finds it difficult to breathe. She feels the pain of others and experiences no joy herself. She states that any positive emotion makes her experience guilt.

Peace is a very personal feeling. No two people will emote exactly the same. There may be similarities but there will also be differences.

Have you found Peace in your life?
What does that mean for you?
Is the feeling lasting?

I find it so fascinating to learn how a child’s mind develops. I am referencing a 7 year old girl. I have worked with her for a while and can share some insights. Every child is different as one’s environment is unlike another. These differences will be included as well.

A seven year old girl asks many questions. It is a curious stage. She will be learning reading and math skills. She will want to be independent and spend time with her peers while still enjoying time with her parents. She will be increasingly articulate and form real sentences. Sleep and good nutrition is important.

This will become more habitual if insisted upon at this point. It is not unusual for a child of this age to have some separation anxiety. This could be not wanting to go to school or stay at a friend’s house.

Janie( as we will call her here) cried every time she went to play at her friend’s. She wanted to return home after a short time. Her parents were arguing a lot and she felt worried when she was away. This is a natural reaction.

Sara, also 7, came from a happy home. She loved to ride her bike with her friend. Parents supervised to be sure the girls were safe. Sally loved to do her schoolwork. She felt challenged to learn more. Her older brother was quite studious and she liked to be close to him. This was her happy place.

Every child has her own issues. This should be respected. Branching out a little and curiosity are common occurrences.

Do you have a 7 year old child?
How do you feel your child is coping?
Does your child seem like her peers?
Do you have any stories to share?
