Love is simply acceptance, is it not?

[Ruth]

Omg I am not sure I got it right...
I just remembered, I love this person, but yet sometimes they make me go up the walls because of some stuff they say..
that means, one can love but still not accept
not sure how the two are linked actually.

I was reading about unconditional love the other day and they mentioned the example of a mother loving her son..
even if the son robs a bank or beats up someone she will still love him.
But that does not mean she will accept his behavior or put up with everything he does... I mean in that case she would hardly accept his criminal behavior I guess. Except if she is a criminal herself and helped him rob the bank

Meerie - In my mind you are confusing acceptance with approval. The mother in your example loves her son, accepts that he has taken these actions and loves him anyway. But this does not mean that she approves of his actions. Only that she loves him anyway.

I am just listening to a "psychic heart clearning" exercise and they are talking about how giving and receiving are part of the same energy flow - inflow and outflow. You can't have one without the other.
