To love means to protect

To love means to cherish. To love is to never cause pain. Neither in anger, nor in offense, nor in rage. To love is to guard someone's heart not only from the outside world but also from yourself - from your anger, bad mood, and irritability. It's as if you have been entrusted with the most precious thing in the world, and you have sworn to be its faithful guardian because only you can preserve its integrity. To love means to cherish.
