There’s one thing unconditional love can’t do. It can’t make someone love you, if they don’t. You just can’t will that. Because everyone has free will to love whom they choose.
Unconditional love just means that you continue to love them anyway. Even if you are crying the night away, when the memory of them hurts like a knife, when you miss them so much you think you might do anything to just be with them once more, you just sit with the sadness til it leaves you, and continue to wish all good things on them.
It sounds hard, but it’s easier than the alternative. Hate and anger only bring more hate and anger. Love will bring more love. Eventually. When you are ready.
Love, always love.
yup, you are 100% right but I feel that sometimes the anger is easier to take than the hurt so I welcome some of it, not for long, but sometimes your heart needs a break from the pain… If only we could choose who we love, would make it so much easier!
I used to think love was a choice, but now I’m pretty sure it’s not. The anger hasn’t served me well lately.
I have always thought love was NOT a choice, because we never seem to love the one who would be the best choice for us, so if love was a choice we would be all set, but it isn’t. My heart rarely listens to my head!
