I agree with this take, and while I don't think everyone thinks you shouldn't hate it, I do think the people who do think that are just using that mentality as a sort of coping mechanism. I definitely think you're able to accept it for what it is, and what it brings as a result, while hating it's existence and persistence at the same time. I've heard people call it a gift, it's not a gift, it's a curse, the gift comes from learning how to live with and around it.
