“Don't ever think I fell for you or fell over you. I didn't fall in love, I rose in it”

Toni Morrison

Simplified Meaning:

When someone says they "rose" in love, they're trying to explain that their love for another person made them better and stronger. It's about how love can lift you up and help you grow as a person. Falling in love might make you think of losing control, like stumbling or tripping, but rising in love is the opposite. It means the relationship makes you feel more confident and happier. Think about a time when you achieved something difficult with the help of a friend or partner – maybe you started a new job or tackled a tough project together. The support and encouragement from that person made you feel more capable and proud of yourself. By thinking of love this way, as something that elevates you rather than something you fall into, it makes it clear that a good relationship should help you become the best version of yourself. So, if you find someone who brings out the best in you, consider that you have risen in love.
