For example R' Shamshon Rafael Hirsch(among others) says that the shoresh of ahavah is hav and the correlation is that when one gives(ie invests in) another person he develops a strong love for that person(which is perhaps why a parent loves a child more then a child loves a parent) </p> <p>If you pay attention, you can find many such fascinating shoroshim on your own.
