My God man! Where do you get these perverse ideas?!

You sound extremely selfish and self-centered - unbelievably so!

If someone murdered my wife I would hate him because he made someone who I cared for suffer, and because he made me have to go without the love of my wife, and made my children go without the love of their mother.

I would not turn it into an offence to my ego! If I wasn't there then why should I feel bad that I couldn't save her?! If I was there, there could still be plenty of reasons. They only way I would feel as you say you would is if I *could* have saved her but I was too scared and worried about my own selfish ass.

And "man enough"?!?! A *man* puts himself *last* among his concerns.

"Think about it: you see murders all the time. Why aren't you hating all those murderers?"

DUH! Because they didn't kill anyone I love and thus did me no personal harm. If I was as selfish as you, I would/should have guilty even because I couldn't save all those people. Don't you feel guilty for not being man enough to feed all the starving people in the world?! And how come you haven't cured AIDs yet you lazy scumbag!

"Hating Microsoft....because you want their success, because you have a million ideas on how to run a company, because you have a billion ideas on designing an operating system....but you don't have the determination to do it"

The word is INCLINATION. I don't *want* to be Bill Gates and have all that wealth. What good is money when you die, huh? Even if you say you could pass it on to your kids, why spend your life being so selfish - when you could "let the season of giving be yours" (Kahlil Gibrahn) and give it to them when you're still alive?

Truly my friend, I assure you that your life will give you only what you give it. As you long as you sit yourself at the centre of your every thought, life will place you as far from the centre of good fortune as it can get you. You may have wealth and success, you may have everything you desire, but a selfish heart stains everything it touches, and the bitterness you project will be there in every taste you indulge yourself in.

You amaze me, and if there are more like you on earth, you terrify me to the depths of my soul.
