If the “meaning” of life or the “solution” to life’s problems could be summed up in one word, I believe that word would be love. This is a conclusion I have reached through my (hereto) thirty-four years of life; but although I often change my opinion on major topics as I get older, I believe that no matter how long I will yet live, on this point my mind will never change. I cannot see any virtue that comes close to this one in the blessings and fruit it produces, and I have never seen any loss that has produced more hurt and pain than the loss of love.
