What can you expect from a small heart? If your heart is small, you can not expect an abundant love. Your heart is where you can generate true love abundantly. Love that flows from the inside out. It is said if you want love, give it. Love is to be shared not to be taken. Energy attracts energy. So love attracts love. But when your heart is small, it can only love conditionally. You put conditions in giving your love to others. ‘I love you, if you also love me.’ ‘I love you, if you do what I say.’ ‘I love you this much, and you should also love me back this much.’ It becomes like a business deal. It is definitely not a true love. A true love never expects anything in return. You just give it (the energy).
A conditional love is like a tap. You can turn it on and also turn it off. ‘I can love you, but I also can stop loving you.’
Make you heart so big that you can generate so much love. A big heart filled with love is a contented heart, a happy heart. Your heart is not needy for love.

I love this line, “A big heart filled with love is a contented heart, a happy heart”. A very nice reminder.

Wow! This was amazing! And truth! The list you included is right on target! It’s sad whenever we encounter that conditional kind of love. May we all be like Jesus with unconditional love for our fellow man.

Interesting issue. Is it really possible? Am I required to love someone like, say, Hitler, unconditionally? I cannot.

Like what the sun does. It shines to everyone without thinking someone is lovely or not lovely. Giving without taking. Love like the sun. Love without expectating anything for the self.
Thank you so much for leaving a comment here. 🙏
