What?!?But yet "love", in its essence, may not be permissive of all transgressions. Sometimes "love" must be strict. Sometimes it must be tempered by honor. I love my son, and I can't force him to do right, to be honorable, but I sure won't hesitate telling him he's about to do something stupid. The thing is, I'll explain why it's stupid. It's love to tell him he's stupid; it's honor to explain why he's stupid. I just cracked me up, but seriously, I meant that.
I'd say that you always follow your honor.Love is a feeling,honor is an action.You can act honorably and still love someone.
If my wife wanted to leave me,I could still love her yet do the honorable thing and let her go.People think that loving someone means keeping them happy and keeping them with you but sometimes those can't go hand in hand.The honourable thing in that case is to love her,no matter how much it hurts,but honor her by allowing her to go and be happy.
Later in down the road,if I see my son about to make a bad decision,I'll stop him because I love him,and honor him by helping him get on the right path.
Also,never let anyone make you think that honor equals pride ("Billy Jo insulted me,I'm gonna kill him to defend my honor") because honor means doing what's right and being a grown up about things,even if you have to eat crow.
Love is an act.Honor is a code and commitment you place upon yourself, love is something you bestow upon others.
Honor is only lost to yourself and no one else as it is self imposed.
Love is something you give or bestow upon others and can be taken away.
You can always love someone and not like them or what they do.
I'm sorry to say, but you will find no definitive answers here among the wise souls of Ingo.
What?!?
One is greater than the other. The rest of it is superfluous.
Love is an act.
Just that going with "love" can lead you into all sorts of suboptimal results. "Love" is a purely emotional thing. Not saying it's bad, just that thinking can be thrown out the window (vocabulary lesson of the day: defenestration) and dumb things done. I stand by the idea that doing the right thing can in fact be the greatest expression of a love tempered by honor. Like I said, you can't love something without honor, and you can't honor something you don't love. I even made that up myself. I impress me sometimes.
Not enough info..........but...... love can solve a multitude of problems.
Love is a wonderful thing.

Love is an act.
Honor is about YOU. Love is about the other person.
Honor, once that's gone, you cannot love even yourself.
The only way love is an act is if you're talking about bow-chicka-wow-wow.Love is an emotional feeling that can cause you to act.
So does suicide, but that doesn't mean it's recommended.
Honor is about YOU. Love is about the other person.
