What does true love look like?

A few times in my life I have had a glimpse into what true love looks like. In these moments I've experienced a profound love that is deeper than what I myself could prove and could only be described as coming from a divine source.

What is true love? My definition of true love is a pure and totally unselfish love that desires to uplift another with no reservation. 

On reflection I realize that those profound experiences of true love have always occurred when I was desperately trying to love someone that I found not only difficult to deal with but in fact so overwhelmingly annoying and obnoxious that it often took my full concentration to refrain from hitting them in rage. 

After a long period of praying for and contemplating how to love the individual, at some point I have this profound experience where I am filled with this overwhelming feeling of love for the person. 

Today I had a small experience like this and it made me reflect on what true love looks like once again. In this experience someone who I once again found annoying beyond comprehension was finally able to acknowledge something I had been trying to convey about his behavior and even reciprocated some level of responsibility to solve the problem. 

Even if to a small extent, I felt a level of God's love for this person and realized that God must have wanted to love this person through me and was hoping that I would not give up on him but keep investing in that relationship. 

Next time I feel like giving up on someone or letting go of my emotions out of frustration, I will remember that God has a deeper love for them than what I at the moment feel I can provide.
