Goodness/morality is layered, there is secret hidden in secret hidden in secret. That is the nature of love. It is sacred manifest but hidden, hidden but manifest, it is connected to us all, making us believe with emotion attached to value, with different hues and colours to the love. It has rules, implications, states, potentials, traits, etiquette, and reality, in different stages we are at, and different states we are in, with respect to different things, but all in all, true love is true vision of value with attachment. The peace and states that come with true love is part of it, the emotion is part of it, but it's not it's main feature. The main feature of love is the degree of belief in the value of a thing or person. The degree you value it is the degree you love it.

Let's try again.
If value is assessed, and objectively so..then by what metric is it assessed? What standard is the omniscient mind using? A moment ago you mentioned what was beneficial to human beings. Can we run with that?
