The Only True Love

I was lying in bed this morning talking to God and thinking about the loves in my  life.  My desire to be loved is so huge.  I can analyze this but may or may not be correct.  You cannot make anyone love you.  You can only love God and yourself and others.  That part you CAN control, and no one can interfere.  It's interesting that that is the only commandment Jesus gave us, to love God and love our neighbors as ourselves.  It is so draining, and so tiring and so sad and lonely to desire to be loved for so many years, and find that yearning in vane.  So the weight of the longing can easily be dispelled by turning to God, self and others to love in a perfect love.  To love without any longing for love returned is the perfect love.  This is called unconditional love.
