Ok. No. I don't hate anyone really
But I do not agree with the going talk I've come across
That the devil and evil do not exist
Because when you ask them
They will admit to having experiences with it
But they claim it isn't real
Or worse
That we must turn our back to it
I don't like to turn my back on anyone
or anything
If I can help it
I just don't
That to me doesn't not seem to be the way
I realize now more than ever
That evil comes
To block my attempts
To be happy with life
To be at peace with it
To live a life at ease (not necessarily of ease)
And I think awareness
And acceptance
Doesn't lead to indulgence
Or susceptibility
It simply leads to awareness
It's like being aware someone wants to kill you; being aware of it doesn't mean that you will let them kill you. I mean sure. It may be inevitable but it's not a forgone conclusion that you being aware had any negative bearing on the outcome.
In fact usually it is quite the opposite.
Come now. Truly.
It's really just awareness and without it some of us don't stand a chance.

It's really just awareness and without it some of us don't stand a chance.
That's why we must be
Eyes wide open
Heart fully exposed
Soul raw with the desire for truth
for a bit of humanity; for everyone
But most especially for ourselves
First and
Then for all others
Because there is no way to have true humanity for someone else
Without opening up your heart to them
As you have opened your heart
Up to yourself first
