Stop Hate and Spread Love
Stop Hate and Spread Love
The chaos in the world now seemed to be undying. It comes in different forms like crimes and wars. These chaoses are actually an accumulation of everybody’s selfishness. One person hates another, one person refused to help another. What can the world achieve with selfish people?
Competition is one factor that triggers a person to be selfish. It can be a competition for power, for wealth, or for fame. In every corner of the world, competition is almost viewed as war: war within families, friends, and community. There is war inside the school, inside the company, and inside the government. Everybody wants power. And everybody’s way of becoming powerful is by stepping on each other’s feet. Life now seemed to be a survival of the fittest. One challenging question is, is there still a peaceful place on Earth?
In creating a wonderful world, everyone must do his share. Every person must stop the hatred and start loving his neighbor instead. Loving one another can mean helping each other at all times.
What can help each other do?
1. Extending a help makes a person feel better about his own self. It gives a person a chance to show his importance to the world.
2. If the people are helping each other, a special connection among them is formed. The connection may not be for lifetime but it is surely a connection that will lingers through life.
3. Everyone can contribute to the improvement of one’s life by simply extending even a small help.
4. Sharing good things within family, neighborhood, or community contributes a lot in creating a better world. Creating a better world is a long process. This process must start within the smallest unit of the society.
5. A kindness that is shared and passed on to one another will encourage a bigger group of people to show kindness as well. If hatred is contagious, so is love.
How can a person show love?
1. Wearing a smile and being friendly – Every good relationship may start with a single smile. A smile can do amazing things to other people. It can lighten up their mood, brighten up their days and make them feel better.
2. Volunteer to a Charity – If a person has plenty of idle times, he can be prone to temptations. Instead of letting temptations strike during this free time, it would be better to volunteer for a charity works. Volunteering a service would mean a lot to those who are needy.
3. Donate something – A donation doesn’t have to be real huge. There might be things that are no longer of use. There might be people out there who still need those things.
4. Take time to help – A helpful gesture doesn’t have to take too long. Stopping for a while and helping an old woman to cross the street is helping too!
5. Listen – There are people who need no material things but just someone to talk to. In some circumstances a good listener is what they need.
When people show love and care to one another, Earth will be a better place to live in. In a peaceful world, everyone is going to be happy. Everyone must start to stop hatred and spread love today!
