See, the English expression, you heard – falling in love. The phrase is significant. Falling in love. You don’t rise in love, you don’t fly in love, you fall in love. Because something of who you are has to go, something of what you think I am, should fall. Only then there is a love affair.
Something of what you think ‘I am’, should fall – only then there is a love affair
You are willing to destroy a bit of yourself for the sake of the other. A bit. Because love means, essentially, somebody else has become far more important than yourself. Only if what you consider as myself falls, something far bigger than you happens to you.
