Thank you, Megan, for writing such a fantastic blog! I read it often, and it always makes me smile. Let's chat soon, ok?Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08035368547284581261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5074415017283652954.post-12686005062944762182013-12-19T16:57:34.234-07:002013-12-19T16:57:34.234-07:00"I wanted so badly to go upstairs and karate-..."I wanted so badly to go upstairs and karate-chop Jack.

I'm with you, I need to not have any expectations, and not put conditions on my love (I'll love you WHEN, or I'll love you IF) - just love unconditionally... But now I'm just rambling about all my current inner turmoil.
