The Meaning of Love

Love is treated as a way of seeing another person’s uniqueness—beyond utility, beyond mood, beyond circumstance.

It is not reduced to romance or pleasure. It is described as recognition: grasping the person as irreplaceable, and being changed by that recognition.

Even when separation or loss is unavoidable, love can function as an inner anchor—something that reorganizes suffering into endurance.

Meaning here is relational: the bond is not an escape from reality. It is a reason to stay human inside reality.
