I think we too often use "loving" someone as an excuse to let them be and stay stuck in the ruts we often dig for ourselves, without ever speaking up and challenging growth in their life (as we should be willing for them to do for us as well), when that's not truly showing love at all...if you love someone, you will want what is best for them- even if that means figuratively (or literally, if need be!) stepping on their toes, splashing them with cold water, and all that jazz.
Love is willing to kindly, patiently, honestly say "Yo. Wake up; get moving. But don't worry, I'm coming with you."
