I think it's the opposite. At least for me. Unconditional love is the natural underlying state, thoughts can't lead my mind to believe otherwise temporarily but you cannot hide the truth underneath for long.
then you mean

I just generally love people. Then they say something or do something extremely greedy and I'm a bit "shocked out of love" for a second, disappointed I guess, but it doesn't last. My egoic thoughts can only make me briefly forget love but it always comes back. This is clients and friends and strangers.
I'm not sure when this happened. I had my first spiritual awakening 20 years ago with the Christ consiousness so don't recall if I've always been like this or if a switch was flicked at that time.
It was pretty profound. But I've always been weirdly open hearted. Abused as a kid and mostly felt compassion for my abusers.
