And of course, I can see this feeling in my mom too. Maybe oneday I get to feel this from my kid when I have one.Sivahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298251479525874685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151426024070475802006-06-27T09:33:00.001-07:002006-06-27T09:33:00.001-07:00And thanks for the complients, vids!And thanks for the complients, vids!noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844071708334559013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151425993564426872006-06-27T09:33:00.000-07:002006-06-27T09:33:00.000-07:00Actually I think unconditional love is only from c...Actually I think unconditional love is only from child to parent or anyone who assumes the role of primary caretaker say in an adopted situation (not even the other way - parent to child - in the purest sense of it) that too in the first few years of the child's life...the child really has no expectations - ofcourse food etc - the child cries in anger if he/she is not fed etc...but the love (or the expression of it) is really pure...you can look hideous, you can sound angry, you can be in a bad mood - no matter what, the way the child reacts to you is full of love...a parent can also feel all that for the child - but I think it still can have expectations and judgements...and more and more so as the child grows into an adult...which is why you do see/hear of parents disowning their kids because they did this or that...not in all cases but I am just saying those intial years the love the child shows for the parent is just so pure...noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844071708334559013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151416506176993682006-06-27T06:55:00.000-07:002006-06-27T06:55:00.000-07:00Nice selction of topic.

Very thought provoking.. does unconditional love exist only between a parent and a child? can we attribute the reason to just the umbilical cord (ofcourse,it holds true even in the case of an adopted child)..then why is it mostly just one way from parent to the child? just my two cents...good write-ups nu chiths !! keep up the good work !!!Kumpihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657475637536202234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151303957765320922006-06-25T23:39:00.000-07:002006-06-25T23:39:00.000-07:00BTW - I had a frappucino today at the starbucks by...BTW - I had a frappucino today at the starbucks by the beach!

Thankfully I didn't think about anything - just looked at the crowds and waited blankly for the walk signal and then looked at a bunch of people playing volley ball (badly!)...yet these thoughts keep haunting me/us all and we keep pushing some of them under the rug and act on some of em!noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844071708334559013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151286082437536532006-06-25T18:41:00.000-07:002006-06-25T18:41:00.000-07:00"while we walk past a homeless man to Starbucks to..."while we walk past a homeless man to Starbucks to have a frappucino we can well live without..."<BR/><BR/><BR/>suffering from the same thoughts as u do. i hope i get an answer some day...Ramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16211331591537290095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-1151107597140865462006-06-23T17:06:00.000-07:002006-06-23T17:06:00.000-07:00It was a nice, touching article...sure, it is just...It was a nice, touching article...sure, it is just random thoughts put together but it made for good reading...<BR/><BR/>"I can let my baby cry it out for a few minutes just so he will fall asleep or just so he doesn't get hurt by some sharp object that he wants but the next instant when he is calm it is totally forgotten - no judgements, no hurt feelings lingering - he can hug or come at my face like a little bear with pure untainted affection."<BR/><BR/>--> these lines were what really made the write-up spl. and something deeper than a simple piece of free-association. really nice words...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
