​The quote, “To hate is an easy lazy thing but to love takes strength everyone has but not all are willing to practice,” is attributed to Rupi Kaur, a Canadian poet and author. This line appears in her poetry collection The Sun and Her Flowers.

There’s a lot of truth packed into this line – hate is easy.

It’s reactive, automatic, and doesn’t require reflection or effort.

Love, on the other hand, takes real strength – patience, vulnerability, empathy.

It asks you to show up, even when it’s hard.

Everyone has that strength, but not everyone is willing to use it.

Love isn’t some rare gift – it’s a choice.

A muscle we can build if we’re brave enough to practice it.
