24 years ago a woman would be held at gun point to the belly. She would also be shot at while leaving in a taxi cab and have bullet holes placed into couches all while being pregnant with her first son, me. The youngest memory I have is at the age of 4, watching my mother being mistreated by my father. It was hard growing up, being given treatment for his wrong doings... I grew up empty, never being conscious or aware of my decisions in my youth or teen years. Becoming of knowledge became a natural occurrence that I can't even explain, all thanks go to God however. God wasn't always there in my perspective and behaviors. Because I was without proper guidance, I guided myself to improper acts of self and others. Joining gangs, drinking, smoking and wanting nothing better of myself in Gods Grace. In the coming years, there would be many mistakes that wouldn't lead me to God just as yet. God eventually revealed himself, when I needed him most, though he revealed himself in private with no circumstance to claim his being there - but, his being there was based on my current circumstance in making wrong decisions. It was literally an event of waking up the next morning and changing my life. I am thankful for the guidance I received from others before my conversion. I've spent allot of time watching over my siblings, helping out raise a family that wasn't mine, the responsibility I felt I shouldn't have. As I matured, those experiences have helped me become stronger in God. Though I don't have kids, I pray for the woman who I am to be blessed with to create a loving and God fearing family with. Until then, I refrain from ungodly behavior and people. Doing my hardest to maintain a continuing faith and love for God. Building on my career, and bettering myself for the woman he has prepared me for. As a better listener, man, protector, comfort and companion.

Do you know the difference between the two? Better question do you know how to know the difference between the two?
One cannot remain unconditional without a conditioning. Selfish Love: is a creation and constraint of Human Particularity. It is absent from the Divine Love (Supreme Beings Universal Love) therefore is subject to only personify oneself under the conditions known to oneself for the betterment and advancement to.. oneself. This would include: Materialistic objects, Lies, Hatred, Racism, Disbelief in God, Misunderstanding, Disloyalty and so on. Selfless Love: is the acceptance of the Divine Love despite the understanding and capability in full comprehension. It is not constrained within ones own morality, but is a partial extension of ones morality (selfish behavior).
Take Care

Imagine a Blue Crayon. Got the Color? Cool. How do you know it's Blue? Personal Experience.
Your Experience then becomes your proof that it is Blue.
How do you attain a personal experience? We all have our individual processes. The blind can assess colors by scent for example. How can you "prove to someone else" that it is Blue? How can you know that your Blue isn't a "Yellow" to them? Asking for evidence, proof sincerely, is asking within oneself the ability to understand another's belief standard. Asking in sincerity, however. Already is an acceptance of that Belief. Only the ignorant will ask of something they do not intend to consider in their own standards. Ask of something if you are willing to accept in your own standard, before making a mockery of your own beliefs. If you already enter with the willingness of not accepting - your belief standard has already been mocked by you. The bible states, do not stand in the way of a sinner..And why? is it...so that you can allow them to condemn themselves? NO. that passage has been mis-read. Its so that you don't stand in the way of them seeing and understanding within their own experiences. The longer we stand in their way, the harder it is for them to experience - on their own. Though, it would be ignorant not to provide guidance within their experiences. Why on their own and not persistence? Because if they start believing under your circumstances and experiences what personalization do they have with God? A relationship with God, should be personal, yet - expressive to one another. The Belief in God, is not just a rules and regulations but a personal experience. Most experiences happen in relationships. Having a personal relationship is how you provide Proof of God.

I want to set free the illusion that binds your own hearts understanding with misunderstanding that it is love that causes pain. Love, the desire for and wanting of purity and contentment, doesn't cause pain. Allow me to be the first to say it whilst speaking from a God fearing perspective.
It is in the absence of love, where 'hurt' makes it's house. In our walks with love for a child, self, spouse and God we have to develop the understanding that the designs the Lord allowed for love are pure and also based on being content. Our want for love, it's purity, is what causes pain. When we misunderstand love or actions/ inactions that are governed by love, we assume it's absence.
Though wanting is not a wrong value depending entirely on the specified want, it is an exclusion from one being content. Once our wants are fulfilled however, that feeling of purity and being content are once again established.
Love doesn't hurt, that would be a contradiction to it's own purposes. You must also be sure, that you are being loved and are loving from a pure and content walk of life. Pain can lie itself into your life, disguising it's intentions as loves own.
You Must be able to decide what is love and what is pain, as they do share in the existence of each others balance.
