We only accept the love we believe we deserve. Unconditional love in full expression makes monsters run and hide. But not before they try real hard to make you hate them again. So just hold the line. Hold the love. They will buck. They will lash out. But just like a child they will either decide they need a hug or run away to weep in solitude. . . hugs, anyone?
(unconditional love does not mean no boundaries, boundaries are love and allowance of 'other')
