              Today is a new day , I don’t need to use today.  I have been struggling with things lately , as it seems anxiety has returned for a short time . I wish I could say this was an easy thing to deal with , but it isn’t. I can sometimes feel this addiction next to me , as just like a shadow following me . Its waiting for me to make a mistake, this monster is just in the shadows waiting for me to make a mistake. This is driving anxiety for me , as this may sound dramatic to most , its horrifying to me . It feels anxiety is consuming me yet again and I can’t stop it,  I have been fighting hard the last few days and it’s not letting up.

 

             Unconditional love is a term that means to love someone regardless of their actions or beliefs. It is a concept comparable to true love, a term which is more frequently used to describe love between lovers. By contrast, unconditional love is frequently used to describe love between family members, comrades in arms and between others in highly committed relationships.

 

             I think most of us have experienced conditional love , or help that has conditions set for a reward in  return. For example a bank loan , you borrow their money and pay interest for using it. Conditional love is no different, as we tend to show love towards someone with the condition they do what we say or give us something in return. When we were growing up or even raising our own children we instill the thoughts of conditional love . When we were clean and followed our parents wishes we were good , as when were bad it someone else’s eyes we were scolded and the love vanished . So there we have another double-edged sword ? On one hand we need to teach values to our children , but at what expense .  I believe that selfish and controlling actions are also  accompanied by this as I have first-rate experience with this. Why do we need a return for our personal investments , this has really interested me as of late. The word ” if ” is the determining factor in this equation , as it defines conditional to unconditional.  The relationships today end early due to these conditions in my opinion, as most are ridiculous to begin with.  We all know the most popular , as being money , if your rich it seems love is easier to find. I was also a transgressor of conditional love , I had my own conditions as I look back on my most recent relationships and now wonder what was the actual driving factor .  This affliction is at sometimes  immeasurable levels and I need to find a way to change this behavior but it’s very hard to do . I need to remain in counseling for this , and maybe even take this to the next level of a psychiatrist .

                        I have a long way to go and patients will be needed as this is another hard thing for me. Generally speaking I feel ponderous or cumbersome here lately , I hope all have an awesome day..
