There are many kinds of love. One is the highest and one is a curse. When you love for Allah, everything becomes easy for you to carry. All of us make mistakes so if you see something wrong in your brother, forget it otherwise Allah will make you commit the same wrong. Love of Allah and His Prophet brings happiness. Love of dunya is a curse.
