Digging the new photograph, Jonathan! Stick with the bowtie!
Way to just be frank, Yoder. I think of that phrase in terms of war because we are actually harming our "enemies." But I have old friends whom I don't like anymore or care to talk to at all. Doing what God commands is a lot easier when I'm writing letters to politicians.
Zoomdaddy, I think that a useful first step is to pray for God's unreserved blessings on your enemies. This is one of my disciplines. I name certain people who have hurt me badly and pray for God to prosper them spiritually and (here's the really hard one) materially.
By praying this continuously, I find that I love more and hate less.

A traveling nomad who ponders the Good only while laying in a hammock.
A bard, or poet, who wants us to re-imagine what we see in the world so that we can learn to tell our stories in a different way.
someone who purposefully does not make sense nor take himself too seriously

the question is, what is the best way to show love to your enemies in various circumstances?
