Walking in the woods has been so important for my emotional health, but then I begin to slack off, and I become quarrelsome and depressed. In the middle of one of those valleys, my husband said to me, "You haven't been writing, and you haven't been walking, and it shows." Those are my spiritual practices. No, I don't think hatred and anger are the same, either -- for me, anger is a sign that my needs are not being met, and that's when I have to sit and think about it. Hatred, on the other hand, is when you cannot wish good for another person. Hmm...off the top of my head, anyway!

What a wonderful metaphor! A character in a book I was reading last night spoke of "The Great Unknowable". A long time ago I started making a list of names for God. I need to find it again now. I've been feeling angry on and off just recently too. Anger is overwhelming sometimes but I don't believe it is actually hatred. It feels like it sometimes. I've only been reading your blog very recently, but I don't think you've a hating bone in your body. There's just a lot of anger in the 'ether' right now. Your post is so honest it's uplifting to read.Minahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581480264435962668noreply@blogger.com
