Thanks.<BR/><BR/>ODP<BR/>Well, I hadn't thought of that. You're right! I had the same situation you did with the parents. Not the sutistic child, but I worked with autistic children for years and I can only imagine. What a woman of courage you are to share that.<BR/><BR/>But what about the love you choose. Like your spouse? What then?Chatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34486160.post-18377243929525128782009-04-09T09:39:00.000-04:002009-04-09T09:39:00.000-04:00I think love is so varied and ultimately so person...I think love is so varied and ultimately so personal that each creature will react differently in expressing and receiving love. I do say "creature," because I have seen animals who clearly love another, even down to loving an inanimate object. Do you remember the German swan in love with the swan pedalboat?<BR/><BR/>I do not think love has to go two ways in every case, but if that is someone's concept of love, then, yes, it must, or they will become unhappy. I loved my parents deeply but was not loved in return. I love my autistic son more than the universe, but no love from him will likely ever be forthcoming. He does not even call me "mom." <BR/><BR/>Then again, I very much enjoy the idea of "burdened love," perhaps because that's all I have. My burden is to love without return, but that burden is also my joy.Olde Dame Penniwighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11871888334179316997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34486160.post-37080875007100238722009-04-09T09:17:00.000-04:002009-04-09T09:17:00.000-04:001 Cor 13: 4-7 Love is patient, love is kind and is...1 Cor 13: 4-7 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. <BR/><BR/>Even the best people screw up on occasion, but thank goodness God doesn't! *hugs*ClassyChassyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12645241442596037812noreply@blogger.com
