Unconditional Love
You say you wish people wouldn't tell you what they want. You say you feel pressure to make them happy. You feel like they expect this from you. I tell you that I'm not going to stop expressing my feeling or telling you my wants and needs. But I want to assure you that I have no expectation of you meeting my needs. I want to assure you that I am responsible for my own needs and feelings. You don't have to do anything for me to love you. All I ask is that you be honest with me. I see the concern in your eyes. I realize that I have placed a condition on my love. I realize that there may be many reasons you might be dishonest. I realize that honesty requires that you be honest with yourself. I realize that sometimes that is an overwhelming exception. I know that you are an honest person. I know that you strive to be honest with me and with yourself. I know that you love me. I don't need you to do anything to prove it to me. I tell you that I don't need your honesty. All I ask it that you be yourself. I already know that you are a wonderful person and more that worthy of my love.
