Summary

This quote suggests that love should be treated with reverence and humility. It implies that those who believe they are worthy of love may take it for granted, while true appreciation for love requires recognizing one's own shortcomings and vulnerabilities. By taking love "kneeling," it symbolizes the act of humbling oneself, acknowledging the sacred nature of love, and approaching it with gratitude and self-reflection. It emphasizes that love is not a entitlement, but rather a privilege that should be cherished and appreciated.
