Lets remember what love is?

This is very insightful post for me. Although it sometimes seems like life throws these challenges at us, and most people give up on choosing love over hate, it is easier and faster to hate and go on with life. What is worse is that hating people is so socially acceptable in different forms, that trying to understand someone that is for example a criminal, is met with being questioned for your intentions. Like why are you even trying to feel compassion for a murderer? But deep down everyone of us is a murderer, most people do not know that, and some of those who know, also know how to keep this part of themselves under control. Its the illusion of separeteness, but in different situation we could be that same person, thats why people should dive deep into their shadow side and integrate what they might be capable of doing to the other person, scary stuff to think about.

But coming back to love and challenges, sometimes its so hard. How to understand someone that is acting straight irrational for us? Like a psychopath for example, when you can not even see the source of his actions. Is it even needed to understand that person before we choose to show love? I guess the answer is yes, but it does not seem that easy for me right now. And then, after we finally choose to love this person, how to set strong boundaries in relationship like that? To still show love but avoid being manipulated? So many questions...
