I Believe In Unconditional Love
I do... but...
I have learned from hard experience that you cannot love everyone unconditionally. Some people have holes in their souls and no matter how much love you give them it just goes right through them and and they need more and more and more but it never does any good and they never give anything back. I wasted a lot of years with people like that and it left me burned out. My husband needed a lot of love, a whole lot, but he let it in, he let it change him and he always gave back what he could. He is not perfect, I am not perfect, but we trust each other to at least do our best and we can easily forgive the rest. In my experience, that is the only kind of unconditional love that actually works.
