Both your bold expressions are grammatically correct. Their meanings are similar, but not the same (the difference is the tense)

The part which is poor English is the question "how far does a mother's love can be?" The auxiliary "does" is not used with the modal "can". And you probably want to use a more specific verb than "be". Perhaps "How far can a mother's love stretch?"
