Excerpt

How can a human being love, truly love, someone they have never met? Love is a complex emotion difficult to describe. It cannot be consciously controlled. Love often occurs when two people make an intimate connection after meeting and assessing each other's personality. It is difficult to explain, however, how love occurs between a mother and a child in utero. The two have never formally met. Love, however, occurs automatically, almost unconsciously, between a parent and a child.
