Projections

When you say you "hate" or "dislike" someone, are you really in a state of hating or disliking....or is it a projection of how this person or situation made you feel about yourself? If you really dig deep enough, you will see that it will always wind up pointing back to you. If you did not feel threatened, self-righteous, wounded, embarrassed, foolish, angry that you participated somehow in your own way, was reverted back to other times in your life when others did not treat you with respect, etc., then the actions of others or certain situations would simply be experiences to which you have shed your attachment to.
