I have found over the years that it can be very difficult to get others to hate me when I hate myself. I don't hate you, I think you are just going though a very difficult time, so you need my compassion even more.

It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence, to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: "And this, too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!
