Do you think all who are in love is good? Do you agree with the statement "Goodness is Love's Character".
I don't think it's true. I mean, there are a lot of bad people who's motivation is their loved ones or family but are doing so at the expense of other people.
What do you think?

Hi laydee, "all who are in love are good?" I would have to say no. Just being "in love" doesn't automatically make a person good, in my opinion. Also, "Goodness is Love's Character", I can definitely agree that goodness is a character of love, but one needs to have a clear definition of love which is very improbable, simply because it means different emotions to different people. It is as you wrote, that people act badly, maliciously, cruelly all in the name of love sometimes. The "crimes of passion" are committed because someone claimed to be "in love". But if you look at a mother's love for her new born baby, or the unconditional love of a pet and their owners, visual scenes that make one feel "good" then yes, it is a character of love.
