A young man excitedly tells his mother he's fallen in love and that he is going to get married. He says, Just for fun, "Ma, I'm going to bring over 3 women and you try and guess which one I'm going to marry." The mother agrees.

The next day, he brings three beautiful women into the house and sits them down on the couch and they chat for a while.

He then says: "Okay, Ma, guess which one I'm going to marry."

She immediately replies: "The one on the right."

''That's amazing, Ma. You're right. How did you know?"

The mother replies," I didn't like her!">

Is there anyone in the entire world who loves you completely, unselfishly just because you are "You"?

I'm so blessed to have that love from Little Buddy. She doesn't care what I look like, what my mood is, or even if I scold her harshly. She still loves me just as much five minutes after the punishment as she did five minutes before it. And here's the best part. She would love me unconditionally even if I didn't return her love, because her love is not predicated on my love. She gives it to me freely with no strings attached.

Here's what she knows about me: she knows that I am a good person who always assumes that everyone else is also good; she knows that I am honest; she knows that I am not a "fair-weather" friend; she knows that I play by the rules and that I expect her too as well; she knows that I am reasonable and will try my very best to resolve our disagreements through logical and rational explanation of the facts.

She knows that if she calls me horrible names unnecessarily that I will not "forget it" or "let it go" until she apologizes. She then knows she is forgiven and it is forgotten. By the same token, she knows that if I hurt her, that I will be quick to say, "I'm sorry." She knows how to forgive when I tell her I am sorry. And one last thing! She knows I have a point beyond which she dare not go. If I have asked her to "move on" and drop it, she knows she had best do just that. She has only crossed that line a couple of times, and she didn't like the consequences.

And get this! She is only six years old.

It's a shame adults can't realize that about me too.
