"Raise a glass and and join in the promise to support love"
The subject line just appeared on it's own. It's what I said when I had to make a toast at my daughter's wedding. I realize that when you have had a few glasses of wine it sounds pretty good. The reality is I haven't really got a clue how to do that. "Love" is a hard thing to define. There is the emotion, but then there are actions that it can inspire, some good, and some bad.
I think that, if I were being generous in my interpretation of what I meant by that statement, I would say, whenever unsure, chose the kindest and most generous assessment because that creates the best environment for actions of unselfish heroics. I think that people who love unselfishly always end up heroes, (though not usually famous).
Of course I could be confusing apples and oranges. Benedict Cumberbatch can sort it though!
