Unconditional Love : The Love Of My Life

Though Cecile Gilmer, author of “The People Who Love You When No One Else Will”, experienced difficulties living with her actual family, she lived with her best friend’s kin to thrive. Notably, the Beaches, Gilmer’s caring “family”, did all three kinds of Dana to her: alms Dana, fishery Dana, and courage Dana. Furthermore, their affiliation became so close that Gilmer was actually their daughter. Initially, Gilmer believed that life was unfair; nevertheless, it is fair. Essentially, the family that one lives in can be any family, whether blood relatives or not; moreover, the family just has to be affectionate. Therefore, by actually living in a giving family, one can grow into a mature adult and develop the life skills

A good mother will always have a never- ending supply of unconditional love for her child, no matter how difficult the child may be. Joy (Wes Moore’s mother), had complete unconditional love for all her children. Wes, being the most difficult child to handle out of the three, was the most loved by Joy. Wes would be in trouble at school and in the streets with his friends. When it became too much for Joy, she sent Wes to military school, which made a drastic change in his life for the better. At the time, Wes thought that his mother sent him away because she didn’t love him anymore. Turns out the decisions she made for him, whether it being good or bad, were all out of the love she had for her son. Mary (The other Wes Moore’s mother), also had

“Unconditional love really exists in each of us. It is part of our deep inner being. It is not so much an active emotion as a state of being. It's not 'I love you' for this or that reason, not 'I love you if you love me.' It's love for no reason, love without an object.”- Sam Jones. Although unconditional love is just as simple as “love without conditions;” in today’s society, that notion seems almost impossible. Chbosky’s The Perks of Being a Wallflower manages to prove this rare, pure love exists, though, through Charlie and his sister’s, Charlie and Sam’s and Patrick’s, and Patrick and Brad’s relationships: family, friends, and lovers. Though these three relationships differentiate greatly from one another, Chbosky authenticates that true

As dictionaries have been adding new words and revising definitions yearly, we have seen a transition in the definition of love. Today, a commonly accepted definition of love is “an amorous episode” (Webster). This concept of love began with its portrayal in Hollywood media, causing the history and true meaning of the word to become lost. While love used to be defined as the “strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties,” or “affection based on admiration, benevolence, or common interests” (Webster), the most recent definition is most similar to what it seems Hollywood is portraying as infatuation. This can be defined as “an extravagantly foolish or unreasoning passion” (Oxford). What movies often portray as “love”

Throughout my life there has been many things that hold me up and keep me strong. My church, this school, and all the friends I have here are just to name a few. But the one I want to show you today is one of the most important foundations of my life, and that is my family and how they have helped me enjoy the great times and persevere through the hard trials, and what a true blessing families are in all of our lives.

From a simple mixture of sexual attraction and attachment to a manifestation of the human soul, feelings of fierce romantic desire boast no shortage of theories explaining their origin and meaning. Love is as much a mystery as it is familiar, highlighting a lack of insight into the human psyche. As man attempts to unravel the endless enigmas behind this apparently paradoxical emotion, more and more questions seem to arise. What is love 's true purpose? Why does it begin? How are loved ones chosen, if indeed they are chosen at all? Why does passion fade?

As the majority of people grow older we begin to see that life is unfair in so many ways. We see that some people have it easier financially while some have it hard, others are born athletic and others aren’t, and some find love early and or easily while some will never find it. When you think about what life is truly about you’ll come to realize the grim truth of life and its true purpose. All in all life is made unfair to force people to change and the changes we choice to make effect so much of the future that we could never begin to comprehend.

As I was reading the notes on Lee’s Styles of Loving, I noticed distinct connections to my best friends last relationship. My best friend, Izabel, began dating her highschool boyfriend, Dustin, at the end sophomore year of highschool and they only broke up 2 weeks ago, about 2 months into our freshman year of college. While Izabel and Dustin dated for over 2 years, our friends and I could never truly support their relationship. Their was something about the relationship that seemed wrong.

When I am heavy hearted, I turn to my favorite novels, they reassure me that even in the worst situation good fate always wins . When I am lonely, I reacquaint myself with the safe and familiar characters that I have grew to love.

Although the emotional connection between literature and myself is imperishable, there was a time in my life when that bond was nonexistent. However, for one to understand the significant impact stories have had on my life, one must know my life. Thus this story begins with my childhood. A conventional upbringing of sorts but of course my childhood doesn't begin with me. It begins with my parents. My parents met each other at high school when they were fourteen years old .
