How long are we giving love? Since Christ, it looks like love and its thoughtfulness of humankind, has been a total fail. I think the answer lies in the subjective, meditative, and/or nebulous parts of the mind. We will not find an objective answer to ourselves, without a perfect love, which doesn't look like it will come.
My "Everything" book was the first of my publications to suggest that we should try to confound the objective mind with koans. I still think that is a nod in the right way, by promoting a more nebulous brain, but I don't know the definitive and ultimate answer. However, I believe IT IS NOT LOVE, whilst similarly it is much less so, conflicts from hate, aggressiveness, and pride. I reiterated the koans idea in my recent collection, "What is my essence?"
