The opposite of love



There is no opposite of love,
since love encompasses all opposites
and neutralizes them,
transforming them
from any misemotion to emotion,
from destruction to construction
and from hardness and frustration
to benevolence and harmony.
The only indispensability is empathy,
the cause and mother of all dialogue,
by which all arguments can reach a deal,
by which all disagreements can be well agreed upon
and which transforms all petty introversion
to the peace of universal tolerance.
It's easy thus to solve all problems intellectually
that only seem so hopeless practically.
