Trying to interpret this daily quote. To me, it is saying that you must humble yourself to truly live in love. This reminds me of a song by Trisha Yearwood called Down on My Knees where she says "love is not a matter of pride." I think it takes a stronger person to be humble than it does to be assertive. We all want to protect ourselves and build up walls. It seems like that is all society is these days. It is hard to love your neighbor. You can't help a stranger cross the street anymore.
