They want you loving material things more. Money, possessions. Then you're indebted and servile. Until corrupted.

Love is a meaningless concept, it is emphatuation, greed, servitude, sometimes an energy. Often it is reliance on somebody for something they cannot provided and ignore or choose to will when desired. It is trust, it is hope, until faithless, but how if loved. Because it is only what you love. An ocean of fickle fancy and folly. A pet loves more than humans because it is a bond not broken unless by bad ownership, it is bound by an unspoken bond, your duty towards it. But you didn't want to love a dog? A pet, because most do. Does a dance and turns tricks wagging its butt, following you about. No. You wanted agreement and devotion. The same as a child until it finds its own loves.

Topically there is strength without love. Because strength does not love. It is stronger than love. Duty and service and commitment do not mean love but can often be expressed as acts of instead of simple professionalism. Professionalism lacking by the ignorant who are not dilligent and are undutiful. Again courage isn't love it is commitment, a duty to achieve and prevail.

What's love. Seriously? A word often meaning something else. I'm sure you expressed desire while quoting another's musings. They expressed something, it wasn't love, in seeking the adoration of others who provided them with platitude.
