Trying to understand a Quote

This quote sounds so nice... 
but personally, I think it does not hold much water.

===.

In the end we will conserve only what we love;

we will love only what we understand; and 

we will understand only what we have been taught. 

~ Baba Dioum

Here is the quote again with my comments in below it

In the end we will conserve only what we love; 

{this is the only line that is true}

we will love only what we understand; 

{what rubbish... love has no boundaries}

and

we will understand only what we have been taught. 

{not always, sometimes still cannot understand}

===.

I've learnt that...

even though we will love only what we understand, true love calls 

us to love... especially so... even when... we do NOT understand.

true love means we continue to love even and 

especially so... when we do NOT understand. 

We can only love 'WHO' and never 'WHAT'.

We cannot love 'what' but 'who'.

===.

and then I realize that...

this quote is not referring to 'WHO' we love, but 'WHAT' we love.

and... 'WHAT' you love... is not the kind of love worth talking about... 
unless it is just small talk.

===.
