I believe I love my son, my only child, the incredible, miraculous, heavenly gift that was given to me for a short while to nurture and cultivate with unconditional love and acceptance, encouragement and compassion, strength and support.
My job now is to take what I learned as I raised this marvelous child and apply it to the child within me.
Do I love my SO unconditionally? That is a pledge I have taken. To act "as if" when my patience is low and my perseverence is shakey. It is a committment to act "as if" whenever I am called to do so until one day, I do it without the "as if".
