Can we do that?
Opening our heart to someone who is kind to us, who behaves in a way we approve, is easy.
But how capable are we to love someone, to see them in their own merit, and witness their divinity when they are unfriendly, when they are not behaving the way we want.
Our love very often comes from our limited self, our small self who puts conditions on love.
I love you when you love me back I love you when you don't look at other women I love you when you give me presents
That is conditional love, we put conditions on the love we share.
Unconditional love is pure love and has nothing to do with romantic love.
Unconditional love is loving anyway, unconditional love is seeing the light & beauty within an aggressive person, seeing how this person is conditioned by his circumstances, seeing the divinity in an unkind person who is limited by his own fears and going through life suffering.
Does this mean that unconditional love is letting walk over you?
No! Not at all. You always have the choice to take distance from people behaving disrespectfully towards you, if you don't take distance, you don't feel that unconditional love for yourself.
Once we understand everyone is walking their path, and it is not up to us to judge, change or control that, we free ourselves.
And be aware of the people triggering you, if an unkind person upsets you, look within yourself what happened. Why are you upset? Did you need approval of that person? Did that person brought up an issue you haven't dealt with?
Remember, the actions and words of another person only reflect who they are and have nothing to do with you.
Always go through life with grace and ease, regardless of the behavior of others. As always loving you,
Barbara.
