Beyond the Shadows of Hate!
Saleh Shehu Ashaka
Embracing theness of Our BeingIn the tumultuous landscape human interactions, one the greatest dangers we face is allowing the hate of others to define us. It is a peril path that leads us away from our true essence obscuring the brilliance of our individuality beneath the dark shadows cast by external judgments and prejudices. We are more than the sum of the labels thrust upon us, more than the echoes of negativity that reverberate through the corridors of social perception.
At the heart of this existential dilemma lies a profound question: Who are we, truly, when stripped of the layers of societal expectations and biased opinions? The answer, I believe, lies in embracing the fullness of our being, in transcending the limitations imposed by external forces and reclaiming our intrinsic worth.
To define ourselves solely in reaction to the hate of others is to relinquish our power, to surrender the narrative of our lives to voices that seek to diminish rather than uplift. It is a disempowering act that erodes the very foundation of our self-worth, relegating us to a state of perpetual victimhood where our identities are moulded by external influences rather than our own inner truths.
But we are more than that. We are beings of infinite potential, vessels of boundless creativity and resilience. Our worth is not contingent upon the approval of others; it is inherent in the very fabric of our existence. We possess the capacity to rise above the narrow confines of prejudice and bigotry, to soar beyond the constraints of hate and negativity.

In a world rife with division and discord, it is imperative that we cultivate a deep sense of self-awareness and self-compassion. We must learn to recognise the insidious nature of external judgments and embrace the uniqueness of our own journey. Each of us carries within us a light that is unparalleled, a spark of divinity that shines brightly amidst the darkness of ignorance and intolerance.
It is time for us to reclaim our narratives, to rewrite the stories that have been scripted for us by those who seek to confine us within the narrow confines of their own insecurities and biases. We must stand tall in the face of adversity, resolute in our commitment to honouring the truth of our own existence.
Let us not be defined by the hate of others, but rather by the love and compassion that reside within us. Let us rise above the cacophony of negativity and embrace the symphony of our own unique voices. For we are more than that – we are the architects of our own destinies, the masters of our own fates.
As we navigate the complexities of our shared humanity, let us remember that the true measure of our worth lies not in the opinions of others, but in the depth of our own convictions and the purity of our intentions. May we find the courage to stand firm in our authenticity, to embrace the fullness of our being, and to shine brightly as beacons of hope and inspiration in a world that is often shrouded in darkness.Let us transcend the hate that seeks to bind us, and instead, let us soar on the wings of our own inherent greatness. For we are more than that – we are divine manifestations of the universe, called to illuminate the world with the radiance of our own inner light.
