What is love?
This is an eternal question. When we think about love, many people have different answers, but I believe that love is about respect and gratitude.
You might be thinking, “Is that really true?” It’s natural to doubt or question things. But at that moment, you have the potential to love people even more. Why? Because by doubting, you think deeply and try to understand others better. And that understanding leads to respect.
For example, when you question someone’s actions or thoughts, trying to understand their background and reasons can help you respect them more. Respect starts with recognizing the value and existence of the other person. It’s important to respect their opinions and feelings and to try to understand what experiences they have gone through.
If you’re thinking, “Is that so?” then let’s move on to gratitude. Gratitude can start with small things in daily life. For example, when someone is kind to you, feel grateful for that act. Gratitude comes from recognizing the existence and actions of the other person.
By being grateful, you can respect people even more. Gratitude is born from recognizing the value of the other person and feeling how important they are to you. By having a sense of gratitude, your respect for the other person deepens.

Love is the accumulation of respect and gratitude. In daily life, by respecting others and having a sense of gratitude, love is nurtured. Love is not something that is born in an instant; it is something that is cultivated over time.
What we can learn from this is that love is the accumulation of respect and gratitude, and it is important to practice this in our daily lives. Doubting or questioning things can also be a step towards deepening love. By having a sense of respect and gratitude, we can build richer human relationships.
