If you had to make a choice what would you prefer- indifference or hate?
Good question. Having a Buddhist bent, it might be healthy to be indifferent than to be hateful. I might live longer and be more emotionally stable, but wouldn't change very much or be motivated to support important causes. Obviously, if I had a choice, I wouldn't choose either one.
I'd go with indifference because it's peaceful and relaxing.
Hate is self destructive and exhausting. It steals the joy out of one's life. (You) can't be happy if you harbor hate.
Hate imprisons your thoughts and emotional being.
In order to "move on" you have to "let go".
Indifference. It the end (well sooner) hate destroys you. It kills you every day. It eats you and becomes stronger, bigger. You can not function normally when hating someone. When indifferent you can somehow observe the situation 'from above', not involving personally. You can find a solution to resolve the problem and then maybe move on from that indifference.
I hope to never have to choose. To me indifference isn't much better then hate. There is no passion or thirst or caring if you are indifferent. I dispise the word hate and try to never use it. Unless it's in reference to doing bad. They used to do labotomies on people and the vegetative state it put them in is what comes to mind when people talk about being indifferent.

AMD or Nvidia? or Intel? Which one do you have/prefer?This is a question for the PC Gamers, Home Theater PC and general PC users. I like to ask on every forum and Social Network. I personally could go for either on a Desktop. Intel for the notebooks are fine .

If you take all emotions, they can be put into 2 categories - love and fear - all animals have the basics of "love" (not sure if there is a better word) and "fear" Hate is really fear. Jealousy is fear. Feeling at piece is love.All behaviours therefore stem from the...
