I don’t have to believe, trust, or enable you to love you. There are no conditions to my loving you no matter what your flaws, or mine are. You might equate unconditional love with some pinnacle of a perfect relationship, it is not. It means that no matter how toxic or wrong headed I find you to be in the moment, I will love you anyway. I might not trust you enough to let you stand behind me, but that doesn’t ever mean that I don’t love you or have your best interests in my heart. Unconditional love is a rare gift, as hard to find as it is to recognize when you’ve found it. I thank and bless the memory of my grandmother every day for the unconditional love she gifted us with. It changed my life.
