I explain why I think indifference is the opposite of love. Love is to be "present", is to make the other part of you. How can we be love if we make walls around us, and instead of building bridges we just "ignore"?! How can we be love, when we are not there when the other needs us?
To hate, I really cannot put into words cause I don't think I ever experienced...rage and anger, yes. But hate?! I cannot also make sense in my mind and soul to love someone, and then hate...it's awkward to me. You cannot hate what you love, IMHO.
I agree, we should try always to approach everything with love, even when we "think" not deserved, usually is when is most needed. But, as humans, sometimes people do need "tought" love to wake up.
