True love is selfless and unconditional, it knows no bounds, it is not critical. Unconditional love is given, without asking for anything in return, like the love of a parent for the child, that of a dog who loves his owner or a baby who loves his mother.. Love is naive, affectionate, sweet and inspiring.
Forgiveness is a characteristic aspect of unconditional love, in fact when you love someone deeply, one finds in the heart the strength to forgive him, bypassing mistakes, because love overcomes everything, even defects.. As Martin Luther King Jr said: "Whoever is unable to forgive is not able to love."
What is true love like?
There is only one kind of love that can fill us, heal us, give us the happiness we all seek: true love. True love has the power to heal all wounds, to unite people and to allow them to create relationships that are beyond imagination..
Unconditional love is true love and it is different from the different manifestations of love that we all experience in life sooner or later. True love is the pursuit of the other person's happiness, without thinking about what one might get in return.
What is pure and unconditional love?
Loving without conditions is more a behavior than a feeling, something that becomes a pure act of generosity. Unconditional love is a new process in every situation and with this authentic and unconditional love we want to convey sincerity.
Unconditional love is true, it is based on communication and never judges the other person. Only when we truly know that we deserve to be loved, will we be able to give our love in a clear way. Forgiveness is a very important part of true love and is the most difficult and unconditional act we can accomplish.
How do you love unconditionally?
Think of love as an action and not as a feeling. Unconditional love is a decision that must be taken in every situation, it is not a rule that applies to everyone and forever.
Keep in mind that loving does not mean making the other feel good, we must not confuse love with making someone feel good and comfortable, satisfying their desires or protecting them from any kind of pain. If you do, you are only hindering the other person's growth process. You have to offer unconditional love freely, even to yourself. Forgive others, even if they don't apologize when they have to, but that doesn't mean you have to put your feet on your head.
When you give unconditional love, you will reap the benefits, such as feeling free, full of joy and free from thoughts and worries..
