Why is love so hard to understand?

Tagged:

Because everyone has their own idea of what it entails. It’s not quite as hard to define as the idea of consciousness, where the thing doing the defining is the same as the thing that’s being defined, but still difficult because love is so core to our beings and our identity that taking enough of a step back from it to get a complete picture of what it is is practically impossible.

Any string of words you put to it is bound to miss something.
