No longer than a decade ago, I was dumb, dull and bullish. Little did I know that to hate others was to hate myself first. Little did I know that to hate others was like harboring a venomous snake within my breast. Little, indeed, did I know that to hate others was like drinking poison and believing it will kill those I hated. It never pays to hate others. It simply means you hate yourself first since you can only give what you have. So, I went on resenting, despising and hating others. It never occurred to me that I resented, despised and hated myself a thousand times more. But, of course, I didn’t know I was poisoning my whole existence. Oh, how ignorant, arrogant, out of place and stupid I was! God above, I was in the arms of utter ignorance and total darkness and I never knew it. The wise have always stressed that there is nothing worse than not knowing what you don’t know.
