The opposite of love

I had a very wise person say to me today "what if the opposite of love is not hate, what if it is fear?"

If you think about it what underlies hate and anger is usually fear. Fear of the unknown, fear of other peoples perceptions of us, fear of death, fear of loosing control....

Food for thought.
