Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule. — Buddha

Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

Author: Buddha

Insight: Most people think the best response to someone who hurt them is staying cold or cutting them off. But holding onto anger actually keeps you trapped in their power—only letting it go, even slightly, is what actually frees you.
