Love
CC love is not pain, it suffers for longing one another but it is not pain...this is my favorite bible verse...but mind you God is a jealous God so if you don't put him first and yourself you will continue to keep pain company.
the universe is your mirror you are what you attract. Law of attraction
@jeannegrey thank you 🙂

Love is not a cure to pain, it causes you pain.
This is like saying guns kill people...a pencil makes mistakes...
Love is what is emulated from people who are taught by something or someone else of what they perceive love is. If it hurts they have learned the wrong definition of what love is. Beating someone is not love. Bullying someone is not love. Raping someone is not love.
Love does not hurt people. People hurt people. If we embrace what truly love is....there is no hurt..no pain..no remorse...or sadness...

"Love is what everybody in this universe is seeking for"that's the problem.
if you read that verse very carefully, you will see that we have love....just as we do faith and hope...there is no need to 'seek' it.

lol love IS pain, and if you disagree then wait till someone you love is suffering and there's nothing you can do to help them. Then come and tell me that true love doesn't hurt.
You make it sound like a burden-- and maybe in some ways you feel that it is.
Love isn't *causing* the pain, though.

I absolutely think love is a burden. Think about it- living life selfishly is way easier than caring about other people. when you love someone, you'll take their burdens upon yourself. When you love someone, you're affected by what affects them, and sometimes that means you find joy in their happiness, and sometimes that means you find sadness in their sorrow. Any mother of a teenager would say that love is staying up late worrying when their child doesn't come home on time, or let them know where they are. Love means someone else's welfare becoming a priority and a concern for you.
... I don't think there's anything wrong with saying that if you love someone, at some point that love itself will cause you pain, unless you're completely selfish- and I wouldn't consider that love. When I see someone crying... honestly, I feel awkward but I don't particularly care. If I love the person though, their tears sting worse than my own ever have. Ergo, the love is the difference- the love is what causes pain.
I think it's totally incorrect to say that if you love someone, they won't ever cause you pain. What about when they die?

You see the difference in your two bolded sentences.
Love IS pain vs Someone you love can CAUSE you to feel pain.
Still... I believe what you're talking about is FEAR; not love.
Worried about the teenager or any loved one for that matter--
something I do frequently-- again, fear.
And the sorrow that comes from seeing them cry-- empathy.
On this:
"And I'm not saying love isn't worth it. I'm saying that love
is more difficult than not loving anyone else. Anything worth
having usually IS difficult though, right?"
Right.
Agree, totally. 🙂

Love is what everybody in this universe is seeking for. It is the cure to pain. It wakes the spirit to what is the true purpose here on earth.
1 Corinthians 13
13 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
