Unconditional Love, Part II

[tcepsa]

This probably should have been the first of these posts, but better late than never--the last one got a lot of interesting replies that have brought me to the realization that I'm not sure I understand how other people use the term. And that it would probably be good for me to find out some of those usages. So! What does the concept of unconditional love mean to you?

(No self-referencing definitions, please! "Unconditional love is when you love someone unconditionally" unfortunately doesn't really help my understanding ;)
