To be feared or loved
By Chance Kelsey, chancellorfiles.com
Is it better to be feared or loved, if one is a political leader or a member of society? This is a serious question that demands an answer.
We all want to be loved and admired by our friends, family, society, and co-workers — but reality is, that humans have no problems offending one whom they love but fear offending a person they fear.
When people love, it is they who have the option to show love towards other people. But when people fear you because you can make them suffer — then it is you who have the power to determine how you will be treated.
Therefore, due to the imperfections of human nature it is better to be feared than loved — because a person who is feared can some day be loved. Now a person who is loved but not feared seldom reaches the level of being feared by the many he encounters.
It would be nice to be loved and feared at the same time, but living among humans verifies that one or the other will always be more dominant. It is, therefore, better to be feared. Being feared you can always do good while still being feared.
Personally, I would rather be feared. When I was coming up respect was numero uno in the streets and in high school. Once a person tampered with it his life or physical well being could be on the line. But fear is another form of respect, we talking about the two, fear and love.
When people love you, they can try to take advantage of you. You know the saying, "family will fuck you first", or "don't do business with relatives".
These sayings are said for a reason and are damn good examples. When people love you the respect just isn't there to take you seriously. The love makes them not think of suffering, if they do something wrong. So when your not taken seriously, people can fuck you up financially, set you up, embarrass you or put you out there.
So I would rather be feared than loved.
