Unconditional

I think the most amazing thing about Bestest is that he is the way I experience unconditional love. And the fact that it took sixty years for me to realize what it was.

I may, in fact, have experienced it before, but it certainly was not consciously and consciously experiencing something enhances it to almost fairy tale standards. The dragons are more terrifying when you know they could burn you alive and the magic is more precious when you realize the heights it can carry you to. Those are fairy tale standards.

There is also the quest, that searching for the elusive something you know in your heart will never be found, but that you also know just looking for (and truly knowing it is there) is so fulfilling it doesn't matter.

It takes a certain mind set to live a fairy tale.

Bravery, imagination, belief, and love.

Most of all love.

The unconditional sort.
