Loving a child is unlike any other sort of love.
I thought I understood what it was to love someone. I have been in love. I have lost myself in love. I love.
Yet, it was my son who taught me the true feeling and sense of love. He was in the icu recovering after an operation gone terribly wrong which left him near death. In the quiet of those silent bedside nights praying for his recovery and praying with all my being that I could take his place, my epiphany arrived: "Love" for me is unconditional, selfless, patient, inviolable and pure. How much this young man teaches me.
