I took this to mean that both love and hate exist in the world at large (excluding for a moment one's inner world, which is hopefully filled with love most of the time) and that, while I would assume most healthy people are drawn towards love, they still are often unavoidably confronted with hate which is usually irrational and underserved. I think that the "medium" you speak of might be that "sitting in the middle" area where one, not swayed by either emotion, strives to realistically gauge how to deal with hate. Embracing hate with love may work sometimes, or it might get you destroyed. Both outcomes are possible. It isn't easy sometimes to know the best/wisest response. Kakki
