A mysterious concept, a romantic ideal, and a taken-for-granted understanding. These are three things that we feel characterize the concept of unconditional love, and in typical Yellow pill fashion, we don't take things for granted.

In the context of emerging and sustaining relationships, unconditional love is often seen as the epitome of the romantic ideal.

From wedding vows to movies to "advice consultants," we all hear people say that to love unconditionally is to declare an intention to love someone come what may.

But what does this mean in a world where conditions are set upon us by default, merely because we exist within certain forms and structures?

Because the truth is, the very moment we consider the type of relationship we desire with another, we will always be in the realm of "conditions" (be it values, likes, dislikes, temperaments, etc.).

So, what then is unconditional love in a default world where conditions cannot be escaped?

This episode was inspired by the desire to learn to love more fully and to bring to light a complex understanding that we take for granted as young adults.
