As teens and in our early college days, we had a wide spectrum of likes and dislikes. As we grew older, with experiences, the scale narrowed down from fantasies to practicalities.
We fantasized our likes to be interests and we fell in love with them. It was "Unconditional". No matter who they were and how they were, we liked them for what they were.
In the process of getting the best of things around us, over a period of time, we narrowed our interests. This is "Conditional". We like them because it fits best for us.
So…Is your love Conditional or Unconditional?
Reasons were not important.
Comparisons were seldom made.
Pride was virtually non existent
Compromises dint seem as big
Dreams were sensible.
Relationships were more meaningful.
Friends were everywhere...and
Happiness was derived from whatever we saw.
Reasons occupied the spaces
Comparisons moved in races.
Pride learned to survive
Compromises desired attention.
Dreams were replaced by expectations
Relationships moved with perceptions
Friends were defined…but
The Irony is, we are happier.
Today, we attribute a lot of reasons, rather conditions; in order to love something and yet we say love is blind. Conditional or Unconditional, I would just say that we know our selves a lot better. For now, what is more important to me is, whether the love is genuine or not genuine…
