When I was younger, I could not imagine giving up my life for anything or anyone, let alone some fleeting, existential nonsense like love. Now, though, I have a wife of ten years and two young children. Looking into the eyes of either of my children, I now know what unconditional love truly means. I have lived a good life, so if the need were to arise, I hope I would have the courage to lay down my life for my children without hesitation.
