"Unconditional love" to me is simply accepting a person for who they are and loving them as is...no matter who they are. One could think hard and decide that condition is involved because we feel good about loving another. As human beings I don't think we can stop ourselves from having positive feelings as a result of loving another. That is part of the beauty of love itself, though. Giving begets receiving which begets more giving...It's a beautiful thing to which everyone involved benefits from. I try to think of it that way. It isn't less of a feeling because we feel good about it. Emotions are what make us human. Love is a gift that has been given to us. It brings us joy and keeps us alive.
