Love comes to us through life, in many forms. We feel unconditional love from family, and true friends & who we are close to but also those that come into our life unexpectedly that we may not have any form of connection with but end up being the most important relationships that will ever happen, those will be the ones that shape you forever.
We have experiences with love that will show us who we are, show who others really are & in some way change us.
It’s reminding ourselves that not everyone we come across will have a reflection of our heart.
There will be people that will come & go in your life but those that are meant for you will be the ones that will stay, you won’t have to make yourself small to be who you are, and there won’t be expectations put on you to be something or someone you’re not because who you are surrounded by, those that love & care for you truly & that will be there in the highs & all the lows.
You won’t always get it to spot on & that’s life at its best!
You are learning about yourself every single day & will overcome so much & even surprise yourself along the way.
It’s about going with the flow, taking in every single second with those that mean the most, as the saying goes ” we have for a good time, not a long time” every single new day we are blessed with is a new day to start again, doesn’t need to be a full list of stuff to tick but a step at a time will get you where you want to be.
We won’t always be prepared for what love has in store, we won’t always experience the love we deserve, and along the way we will be hurt, let down & disappointed but that will make room for those who do love you exactly as you are!

While reading Catherine I am reminded of how love is a choice. We choose to love by our actions. And choose to love unconditionally. Parents often place conditions on love, “Only if you do this or that.” When we’d expect parents, above all, to only love unconditionally. I experienced a father’s unconditional love but not as much a mother’s. Mind you I did have the unconditional love of a grandmother and aunt. Also, of course, some behavior is not liked but love remains constant… Thought provoking article. Thank you Catherine. 💟💟💟💟💟💟
