Unconditional Love or Just Love?
Do you truly believe there is such a phenomenon as "unconditional love"? In the human experience, are we capable of loving another human being, without conditions?
If this is possible, how can we unconditionally love another person? If you get into an argument/fight with that person, it may result in detachment, broken hearts or that person may even get so angry/enraged at a particular situation, that they may even kill.

This is deep rooted question that maybe you never thought about or even struggle with.
My personal belief system is that we can have short spurts of experiencing unconditional love, but most of our loving relationships are conditional.
Unconditional loving relationships we form:
1. Our relationship with GOD-Our relationship with the Almighty is unconditional because it is our most sacred connection and doesn't involve another human being. It is based on faith.
2. A child, before the age of 5 years old- Children before the age of 5 are totally dependent on others for shelter, nurturing, nourishing and overall survival. At about age 5, the child understands the self and the mind/ego starts taking over the heart of the child, allowing the child to set their own boundaries between them and most commonly their parents. Thereby, forming conditions on their experiences with others.
3. Animals- We form loving relationships with our pets. They are totally dependent spirit-souls that need us humans for mostly everything, similar to the needs of a small infant/child. The difference is that animals do not have the use of 'discrimination' and the misuse of the ego to cause suffering, so all they know how to do is Love. For the most part, animals will come back to you for love, even if not treated well.
So, in loving relationships in the human dynamic, there always has to be this dichotomy between attachment and detachment with our loving relationships, so we shouldn't fully immerse ourselves 'unconditional' loving relationships which eventually cause possible codependency, control, suffering through attachment and even detachment from the other person.
Just Love as much as possible and let your big heart lead the way.....No expectations except giving and receiving Love !! Enjoy the ride.....
