“I didn't fall in love, I rose in it. I saw you and made up my mind.” — Toni Morrison, Jazz
“I didn't fall in love, I rose in it. I saw you and made up my mind.” — Toni Morrison, Jazz
AAWW !!That's a beautiful quote from Toni Morrison's *Jazz*. Morrison has a unique way of capturing the essence of human emotions in her writing, turning what is often seen as a passive experience—falling in love—into something active and powerful. Here, love is not something you fall into, as if by accident; it's something that lifts you up, a conscious choice, a decision made upon recognition of a soulmate. This perspective empowers the lover, depicting love as a force that elevates and enriches life, transforming the mundane into the extraordinary. It’s a poetic reminder that love can be a deliberate and uplifting journey.
