Love is Unconditional


Today’s Dare
Do something out of the ordinary today for your spouse --- something that proves (to you and to them) that your love is based on your choice and nothing else. Wash her car. Clean the kitchen. Buy his favorite dessert. Fold the laundry. Demonstrate love to them for the sheer joy of being their partner in marriage

This one is so hard. I mean I understand what it is and I have always tried to love unconditionally. But, things like loving you spouse in spite of the fact that he is cheating on you, or is vacant when it comes to the marriage. That's where people hit a snag. Including me.

But, I have always LOVED Jason even when I didn't like him very much. I think that if you can love you husband with the same love that we give to our children... that's a great place to be.

This is how Unconditional love was hit home to me. My Psych teacher put it to us straight. Through that statement I can understand what it means to really love someone. To love not only when they are doing the things that you like, but when they are doing the things that you don't. And, if you can apply this to your relationship it would mean a lot less fighting, and it being easier to decide "if this is the hill you want to die on." Are those petty things that we get annoyed by really worth starting a fight over or could we just let it roll off our backs remembering to love unconditionally?

I gave Jason a back massage and had the kids all clean and sparkly and happy and calm when Jason got home from work yesterday. I got myself up and dressed to. I know that doesn't seem like a huge thing, but none of the things I can do right now are going to be huge. I'm glad that we have "small town" attitudes, because we know that its those little things that add up when you are thinking about where your relationship is at. Just like when you are unhappy all those little wrong creep into the front of your head.
