"I want you to know though, " I love you brother"
""You don't even know me.""
Well I thought that since so many on this group choose to "dislike" ,even
"hate" me ( which is evident by what and how they get their point across
based on what I have previously written), I can choose to "love" then. I
don't have to wait for the feeling to love when it is 'agape' love
(unconditional love,). It is a choice in response to someone who is not
necessarily kind; in this case by what you've just said, even though I
know
so little of you'
