Without an iota of doubt.

I am curious. How many of you, dear readers of this thread, actually practice unconditional love? Do you love anyone? Without limits.  Without conditions. In a way in which your love would never wane. Under any circumstances. That's quite an order. Personally, I'd rather not ever be put to the test. Probably haven't. Of course, I have loved several others. Dearly. But 'unconditionally,' I don't really know. Depends on one's definition of unconditional. Applied rigidly. Profoundly. Not loosely. Where does one draw the line between loving someone in a likeable and loving way versus an absolutely unconditional way? A little like the difference between being a believer and a true believer -- a believer without an iota of doubt. --Jim Broede
