Handling hatred!!

Sometimes certain reactions are expected from people, we are aware about what they think about us, how they perceive us. We’re prepared to accept their love, care, respect, kindness, sympathy, even ignorance. How does one learn to accept hatred; hatred from a person who we never expected it from? Most of the feelings are self-earned, few of them, however, are inflicted upon us. Hatred is a feeling I’ve often encountered, sometimes given, mostly received. Yet we never really get used to being hated. Every time I realize the feeling of being hated, I begin to switch off from the world. It’s definitely not worth bothering yourself for somebody who has chosen to hate you, but I wonder what wrong i did to earn the hatred. It has happened before, it happened again. I continue living with the hope that it won’t happen again.
