*~Love and Hate ~* *High and low* *love and hate* *how alike but not the same* *both are pursed* *with intensity and passion* *each igniting an inner flame* *If we had never climbed* *the mountain* *would we know* *how low the valley* *If we had not suffered* *the pain of heartache* *would we feel* *the wonder of love* *Is it safer to hide from the world* *in a illusion of contentment* *but then what would we* *have to say of life* *other than the safe haven* *we have endured* *Thus climbing the mountains* *exploring the depths* *living and loving* *as if there is no tomorrow* *knowing you have endured* *the worst* *enjoyed in full the elixir of life* *by living each day your way* *as it was meant to be* *� 2005* *Carole Mathys*

Under the rhythm of knowledge art meets wisdom and
"Love and Hate" is composed to strike the hearts to pump
true understanding.

Mountains of life are interesting to climb and explore. One has not lived if one doesn't climb, even to experience to few small falls is worth the living.

Great message to all.

If we had not suffered
the pain of heartache
would we feel
the wonder of love

Probably not, for most of us, and this is a wonderful poem, Carole.
