Paul best Defines love at 1Corinthians 13:4-8 "Love is long-suffering and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, does not get puffed up, 5 does not behave indecently, does not look for its own interests, does not become provoked. It does not keep account of the injury. 6 It does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails..."

What is the essence of life on planet earth? One might say the essential part of the Earth is in the air, water and food. Of course all the elements of the Earth support life. Yet the most central, innermost, or central part or essence is characterize by its design or its designer. One would need to incorporate an intelligent designer into the ingredients that anything exists. That’s why human awareness of life’s substance by a creator is the heart and central ingredients of life on this planet. The essence of life belongs to Jehovah the Almighty. Psalm 36:9 "For with you is the source of life;By light from you we can see light."
