My theme for the A to Z Blog Challenge @AprilA2Z during the month of April is ~ My Life Is My Masterpiece ~ Lessons Learned
************

I believe the closest experience of ‘unconditional’ love comes with being a mother. It doesn’t matter how old your child is or whether they live nearby or far away. A mother carries her child in her heart forever. With Mother’s Day coming up I wanted to share this beautiful song I discovered while putting together the AtoZChallenge.

The 2016 A to Z Challenge #atozchallenge@aprila2z is 26 Days in April (No Sundays) of blogging using each letter of the alphabet as a prompt for each blog. My theme for this Challenge is My Life is a Masterpiece ~ Lessons Learned

I loved your post today! That song made me cry as I thought about my grown children- we always want to keep them safe even when they’re no longer in our arms! Blessings to you

That poem or perhaps better, “advice to ourselves” was so thought provoking and would make one really ponder. We are taught and have unconditional love held up as the ultimate love – the goal to be achieved.
And, yes, love can have many, many faces and aspects. Allowing each and all their time and place in the overall context of that is the bottom line – and not conditioning it on being unconditional — not conditioning love on being unconditional — seems to me to be such a gift and sharing.
Good find! Thanks so much for that.
