Life antonym-ized ;-)
Today's breakfast was an enriching one. Adil said there are three kinds of people according to oneself. People whom you like, people whom you dislike and of course the unfortunate ones whom you do not care for.
To add to it, I would say, there are instances when you would like to tell someone, "love me or hate me, but don't stay indifferent to me". Luckily, till now (apart from few forgettable aberrations) all the linkages had been of the first two kinds :D
There are three kinds of feelings you can have towards someone you know. The noblest - you love them; the ordinary - you hate them; and then the worst - you are sypmathetic towards them. I think I am the kind of person, who can forgive even his enemies but not someone who is sympathetic towards me. So be ware of such notions in future ;-)
What's life without enemies? Even Yudhishtira (mahabharata fame ;-) ) could not remain an Ajaatashatruvu. There is the catch. You know about Yudhishtira (the love) only because there was a duryodhana (the hate) and more so because you felt both of them strongly before.
You must know how to hate, to learn how to love. But then, once you know what love is; could you ever hate anyone anymore?

One cannot organize a list of whom to love and whom to hate. You can even hate someone whom you love, at times. Loving or hating a person depends on the very moment when you think of him/her and also on the extent of feelings you have for that particular person at that moment.
Ok thanks for reminding me. I was not referfing to those momentary vicissitudes in emotions. And more importantly, in the context i mentioend, "love" and "hate" are only the choices you make... in response to someone's character not eh behaviour which is of more of temporary nature.
