Idiom

a task that is done only for the sake of one's pleasure and not for any rewards of any kind

What is the origin of the idiom "labor of love" and when to use it?

The idiom "labor of love" originated from the combination of two concepts: "labor," which refers to work or effort, and "love," which signifies deep affection or passion. The idiom is used to emphasize that the motivation behind an endeavor comes from a personal sense of fulfillment, enjoyment, or commitment, rather than external factors.
