Idiom

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.
