Is All You Need Love?

Love is complex. One can love without receiving love in return. One can hate and claim he/she loves. If a person is racist, does he/she love their race more, or hate the others? Really, it can go either way. If one is suicidal, does he/she love others more than his/herself, or does he/she just hate his/herself? Whenever we see love, we see hate accompany it. Whenever we see hate, it's accompanied by love. Because love and hate are both present at the same time, to love or to hate immediately becomes a paradox. Because it is a paradox, love is hard, and complex. The complexity of love is too hard for us as humans to understand. Because love is always accompanied by hate, it is complex.
