Dear all, These are very interesting questions but not easy to answer at all ^_^
For these questions, we couldn't give one exact answer because, I think, there is no one exact answer for them. I here just want to give my opinion about this topic, love or be loved :) When my eldest brother at the first time went away from home to study university, my father spent nearly half a day telling him many things about life, especially his new life at a new circumstance. Among these things, I was heard a really meaningful advice about care and love. He said that in order to be cared we must care other first, and in order to be loved we should give others our love first. In order to be love, that person had to be lovable, he added. He explained that we cound not control others' feeling, we cound only control the thinking of ourselves. Loving belongs to ourselves but being loved belongs to others' feeling. A person who always asks for being love without giving their love to others is not a lovable person. Therefore, he adviced all of us that all we need to do is learning to know how a lovable person is and trying to absorb these characteristics into your heart. Caring, loving others is a determinative key characteristic among them. Those words we would never forget!
