Cruelty is the intentional energy you put into any action that stops Allah's love from showing through.
It can be the goodbye you say to someone in need, the piece of bread you take from a crying child's hands, the unanswered call of your mother calling to say she misses you, the parking space you raced to to take from the old man driving around looking for a space, or the co-worker you decide to ignore because you heard rumors that he/she might be something but you are not very certain.
Anything that hurts others intentionally is cruel.

cruelty is to not care about the impact of your behaviour on someone/something else, knowingly. to not put yourself in the others shoes and feel what they might feel.

An inflated sense of one's own importance; conceit.

What is cruelty? Cruelty is going through life focused ONLY on your own needs to the neglect of all others. It is deception and lies in the face of kindness and love. Cruelty is heartlessly squeezing every last drop of spirit out of someone who cares about you until that person has no more love for you.

I have to agree with you on that one, Sobriquet. You know, there are still fans who support him.

I no longer support him and i one point i did. I even thought what a difference between him and his brother Marcus who was a troublemaker. I guess he is a lot worse.
However he will pay his debts to society by going to jail and afterwards i hope he is reinstated to the NFL because that is his livelihood. I hope he redeems himself and i am confident he will, sitting in jail for a year or two should make him realize the enormity of his actions.
