Question:

Is it important to love others only when it is easy or is it more important to love them when it is testing?

Because when you finish the test you will pass and you can go on to another level and quit walking around the same mountain all your life?

Very interesting observation and a very true one.

Loving others only when it's convenient and easy

isn't really love at all; it's more like an infatuation

or loving impassively and without compassion.

Although love can be many things to many different people;

the true roots of the word is in the ability and willingness

to even bother to take the test.

It's not only more important to love them when it's testing; but

is necessary and required. You may never finish taking the test

because life will always factor in some trick questions on you

every now and then to keep us from falling into some sort of

comfort zone and then taking that love for granted. But like you've explained..you do get to go to another level, and with each level

the tests become more challenging and more difficult to

compartmentalize.

Unfortunately, many marriages and relationships today are

dissolved at the very first sign of a setting or backdrop where

a simple test or series of exams have entered into the equation.

Love is so easy when everything is peachy and hassle-free.

But let one tiny crack appear into that foundation and the entire

home has been reduced to rubble. Excellent question, by the way.

Peace/Joy

It's important to love others in good times or bad time. In good times be happy with them and in bad time be on their side keep smiling keep shining knowing you can always count on me that's what friends are for in good times in bad times I'll be on your side for ever more remind me of an old song :) 1^[]^1

It's important to love them when its testing also as testing times are the times where peoples true characters and feelings are shown. If you can stick with someone through testing times, it shows how good, strong and supportive you are as a person.

each moment requires it's own solution: there is no one right way to love a person. However it is best if we could be compassionate to all beings all the time. How that translates into reality is the work of all of our lives. Whatever you do though make sure it is genuine. Fakey love is the worst.

It is of course important to love others when it is testing because you gain something positive from it but you should love others always. You should never set yourself up thinking that you should only love others when it is a test or just because it is easy...get in a habit of loving others always and it is best.  The world is full of too much hate and spite.  We need all the love we can get.

Peace & Love  :)

As unconditional love goes through even more conditions, joy increases. See the Beatitudes
