As flower has its quality of giving smell, irrespective what you do with it — even you crush it under the heel of your foot, it doesn’t leave giving smell. Like this way, the love is a quality, independent to its object, whether the object is good or bad, the quality doesn’t change.

If someone thinks to love someone and side by side to hate someone, then, would it be love? Or, is love the favorable exchange of emotions, thoughts and sexuality? When they are favorable then it is love, otherwise hate or worse!
