I am just trying to walk that tightrope between keeping the road home paved and smooth and allowing her to miss me. Adding to her ammunition to walk away versus showing her unconditional love.
Yeah - the unconditional love is a hard one. I think when people think of it - they always think of the expression "turn the other cheek".. but in actuality love has many sides.
Like when Jesus came in and flipped the tables and called out the pharisees.
or the fact that God Loves us soo much.. he's willing to let us go to hell. He loves us enough to give us free will and make our own choices.
I think that's when it gets really hard.. is when you know loving someone.. means not great things for you or for them.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.
