I've decided recently that people have too big a fear of the word 'love' now. No, this isn't going to be a cliche blog about people who can't say 'I Love You' - that's been talked to death. What I mean is, people used to be infatuated with someone and say that they were 'in love'. Now, saying you're 'in love' seems to be equated with saying that you love someone. Ridiculous.
While watching Disney movies, I had a revelation on the matter.
To be in love is to be infatuated, to adore, to want madly, to think about nothing but. It isn't a commitment, it isn't something to be afraid of. Why can't people say "I'm in love" anymore without being labeled melodramatic and overzealous? Being in love is easy, even if loving is hard. I want humanity to be able to say that they are 'in love' and mean it.
This post is shorter than I imagined it being. Just wanted to say that. : P
