I have seen it in reality more then once. I am one of the in-between.... At times I have to do a conscious effort NOT to do certain things I detest in others or some-one particular. An I have realized that to avoid being that is to vaporize the 'hate' ..slowly it turns in to detestation turns to bothering turns to indifference turns to correction of the other person turns to salvation ..of myself.Kokila guptahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14992236728883850513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-49046976570372047962014-06-17T08:21:10.080+05:302014-06-17T08:21:10.080+05:30Not everyone becomes what one hates, Raja.

Anyway, that's not the central theme of the story. The protagonist in the story has gone beyond the poles of love and hate, and reached a level of awareness where feelings don't play much role and the bifurcations made by traditional morality vanish....Tomichan Matheikalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05037872309096060126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102451431033041663.post-71925583267941978872014-06-17T08:18:18.284+05:302014-06-17T08:18:18.284+05:30Thanks for sharing your experience, Aditi.

The vices become our tools, eventually part of our character.
