Let us first start off by defining what unconditional love truly is. Unconditional love is the love that cannot be anything but the higher vibrational force of the Universe itself. There are absolutely no limitations on this love, and even words can't possibly do it justice in and of themselves. The best part is that we all have this unconditional love within us, we just have to learn how to set it free.
By holding grudges against people that we feel have done us wrong, we are actually hurting ourselves a lot more than we are the other person. This can be extremely harmful to the heart center if one is holding a strong enough grudge for an extended period of time. This blocks our natural ability to have the love freely moving through us. By truly forgiving the other person, this opens the heart center for pure, unconditional love to freely flow through. By forgiving another person, we aren't excusing the behavior and allowing ourselves to be a doormat. Rather, we are truly healing the negative energy that we may have been harboring for years and years.
If this person feels that this is a good excuse to act foolishly again, then we can just divorce ourselves from these situations with love. Instead of harboring ill feelings, we can just choose to move away from the situation. There is no longer a need to feel like we need control over the other person. We truly accept the situation for what it is and rise above the negativity that WE created for ourselves in the first place.
That's right, no other person can make us feel a certain way. We choose to harbor anger and grudges against the other person as a method for control. It is a mechanism of the ego which can cause toxic energy if it isn't kept in check. Unconditional love is our most natural state of being, and when this is blocked, that's when all kinda of physical and emotional blockages can take place. This love truly sets us free because it returns us to our most pure, natural state of being. We no longer need to feed our head with false ideas because at that point, we are operating in a more heart-centered space which can make us feel "high on life".
For true, unconditional love is the beauty of beauties, it is such an awesome feeling that even words can't possibly contain the full magnitude of it. It is that which is true divine love which is within each of our very souls! We are truly blessed for this and can appreciate this great blessing to the fullest extent when we truly get in touch with this divine love and totally set ourselves free.
