You should never do what you love. You should do what works for you. I love fishing, but I would never hold it as a job. Programming works for me. I like it, its fun, challenging, and allows for a good lifestyle. Two different things.
We love those things that bring us pleasure, we like those things that allow us to do the things we love.
It's not a dichotomy - some people do make a living fishing and love their lives. Will you love everything all the time - no, but you'll still essentially be doing what you love.

Life is the thing that goes by while we try to make a living.
