talking to myself

I liked this enough to refer to it in another thread, even though the first sentence after the heading is awkward.

If we are not innately loving, our need to be loved inclines us to love in return.  So long as there is, at least, one 

trusted and true person to love a child unconditionally enough to assure his/her wholesomeness, the youngster

will seek out symbiotic relationships.

Our upbringing is important.  Yet as you said, all that is needed is to find one person who truly loves us and to respond does have deep repercussions.  Then there is the love of God that never stops pursuing us I believe.

I have never met a human being who could sustain giving love like a boundless fountain of joy. Unconditional love is a radiating power, truly. It is a quality of a Christ-like being. Humans strive to love by choice, but the divine is love by definition. I strive to be loving, partly because I have never forgotten my meeting with this wonderful being in the Void. Was he Jesus? I believed then that he was my Lord Christ. I have no doubt, however, that it is by grace alone that I am still able to remember that experience. In fact, my constant prayers are to never forget my loving side, and avoid adding to the confusion of the moment by not letting my baggage speak on my behalf. It is interesting that you believe that Lord knows our true essence because my deep faith and connotation of my meeting with Christ point in that direction, as well.
