Good question.

Both.

First is the mother’s love for the child in her womb. This is necessary for healthy fetal development. If a child was unwanted, they know it and it creates an underlying personality trait of never feeling good enough, no matter how successful they are in life. When I touch these memories in a person’s soul it knocks the person over backward off their feet.

Second is the love between the parents. This allows a parent to be there for the developing child to hold on, but does not create an unhealthy co-dependency needy love between one parent and the child. ( When I stimulate a childhood memory of parents fighting in front of the child, the child starts physically shaking, even though the child is now an adult)

The most important love is an unconditional self acceptance exactly as you are. L9ve both the good and the bad, as if you reject the bad you can’t change it to good. By this I mean not using love as a carrot on a stick that you chase and if you catch it you can now love yourself.

Chase the carrot on the stick and better yourself because you love yourself, not as a prerequisite to loving yourself.

Finally, it is the Love of God that keeps your soul growing and expanding upward.

Jesus’s two commandments are the most important scriptures in the Bible.
