One of the most troubling facts I have had to accept is that people are not all angel or all devil. They are both good and awful to varying degrees and in varying circumstances. On any given day, dependent upon the situation, you will be confronted by either the devil of a person or the angel of the same person or a curious mix of both. This means you can, and most likely will, love and hate the same individual alternately throughout your life. This truth I find painfully heartbreaking. Richelle E. Goodrich
About This Quote

Living in the world, we are exposed to a wide range of people from all walks of life. Each person influences us in some small way, either for better or for worse. We often get to express our own personal opinions about people, and then we share our stories with others. Some of these stories may include a person’s good qualities and others may involve their bad qualities.

Now, what lies behind this is that some people have good qualities while others have bad qualities. In other words, it can be said that some people are angels and others are devils. What this means is that you can get to love and hate the same person at the same time.

To love someone is to love all of the person’s good qualities while hating them for all of their bad qualities. If you want to know more about how to deal with these two extremes, then go ahead and look into EFT/Tapping techniques because it will be very helpful for you to learn how to deal with both sides of the spectrum without feeling stuck in between them.
