Love

Life and love are 2 different things. We live our lives to fulfill our basic needs and our desires. Some desire for vast amount of money, ample of properties and a fleet of cars. Life is how we protect ourselves and satisfy our needs. Some desire for love, a human's desire. Apparently, most of the individuals seek for love in their lives. Which is why we have young couples, marriages, divorces, gays, lesbians, children so on and so forth.

Yet, not more than 2 in 10 people will understand what is the term 'unconditional love' means and to what extent it should be incorporated in your life.
Unconditional love
is to love someone regardless of one's actions or beliefs. The love between lovers and also the love between family members.
How much are we willing to give unconditional love to the dearest in our lives? To our parents? To our lover? or to your kids? We don't buy love with money. Also we don't use money as the factor to love someone! That is so damn selfish!

There is a family I met through Legion of Mary work, where the daughter is totally paralyzed because of a road accident, 6 or 7 years ago. The parents and sisters never gave up caring for her. They are all very supportive of her. The most touching part is that her current boyfriend before the accident still stays with her until today. He never stop loving her, although she is paralyzed and no longer beautiful as before. He is always there for her until today. Never leaving her. We should all learn from this family. Unconditional love among the family members and between lovers.

Start to appreciate everyone around you. Stop being selfish and all you care about is you yourselves.

We all want to feel loved. We think about it, hope for it, fantasize about it, go to great lengths to achieve it, and feel that our lives are incomplete without it. The lack of unconditional love is the cause of most of our anger and confusion. If you are the person who is always in anger and confusion, ask youself 'how many person in your life that you truly loved unconditionally' and 'how many loved you in return'?
