Language is love. Finally realized this. I mean, I knew it before and I knew that I held an unhealthy amount of appreciation for it, but for a moment, I seemed to have forgotten the extent of it. A couple of days ago, a non-native friend of mine asked for help with her German presentation. Of course I helped her out, and when I left her apartment three hours later, I was smiling so madly that it almost scared me. I had so much fun discussing language and mistakes and cultural aspects in language and what-not. Unsurprisingly, this really helped me finally let go of my little dream of ever studying medicine. I still think it’s highly interesting and I wish I’d gotten the chance, but while medicine is of interest to me, it’s not my passion. That’s language.
