When all you see is red: Overcoming feelings of hatred this valentine
Hatred is like a terrible disease that can consume your entire being.

Hatred, a strong dislike for another person or thing, can easily tear us down. It can consume our day-to-day thoughts. It can turn happy moments into dark and dreary ones. It can even consume our entire personality and turn us into someone that others no longer want to be around. You why? Because no one wants to be around a person who constantly
share stories of how she/he hates another, or how bad their friends have treated them in the past. The truth is no body really cares.
I’ve seen what hatred can do to relationships. Hurtful actions and words have been the catalyst for bitter and hateful feelings to enter family relationships. As you begin to fill your heart with hate, it is easier to let more of it in. To stop these feelings and keep your relationships strong, here are several ways you can overcome feelings of hatred, bitterness and vengeance.

- Exercise more especially do cardio. It helps with releasing endorphins and making one more calm
- Talk with a trusted friend on the issues that are bothering you. It does wonders to talk about issues. Women know this a great deal better than us guys
- Start being grateful and displaying gratitude. One gets perspective one you realize how much one has and why in the world are they angry or hateful with all that they have
- Take angry thoughts captive. When angry thoughts do arise, take them captive and 1) figure out where it's coming from and 2) Replace with happy or non-hateful thought
- Focus on helping others whether friends, family, the less fortunate via a homeless shelter. It's amazing how much our perspective can change when we make a positive difference.
- FORGIVE. IF POSSIBLE. FORGET.
