To be "in" something does not make it so...

Today got me thinking about insanity. Not thinking about it like it was something I wanted to try, just the very language of it. Why is it a good thing to be simply "sane"? But "insanity" is not the same as being "in sanity", with the prefix "in" meaning "not" or "without". If something is valid, we say it is "valid". If it's within its validity, we do not say "invalid", for that means it is not valid. "Incorrect" is not something meandering in its correctness, but in fact is "not correct", "Insurmountable", is I suppose, the inability to be ...surmounted? And "inability", for that matter, a lack of ability.  (I know, the way this blog is shaping up, you're probably beginning to wonder if I decided affirmatively to try that whole "insanity" thing. But hear me out.) It also got me thinking about other words and phrases.  What does it mean when someone says they're "in love"? Are they in a state of love, or do they only THINK they are in a state of love, which leaves them (and the person they share this love with) to actually be "inlove", or "without love". I'm aware that "inlove" isn't a word, but my point is, maybe it should be. For when someone decides they are out of love, it doesn't mean they've run out of love to give, they are simply no longer in a state of love with the other person. Why shouldn't we then, have a word that so concisely....surmounts...this state of being out of love? Breakups, of course, would be tricky. It would all be in the phrasing, the pacing of the words. "I'm sorry, but I'm inlove with you." "I know." "No, I mean, I'm not IN LOVE with you, I'm inlove with you." ...This new word might take a while to catch on, but give it time. I see potential. Perhaps you feel this blog is "inpoint" (not a word, but still lacking a point.). I'll leave you with this: LOVE is a very particular word. A word I feel is tossed around too loosely these days, without a real sense of the gravity behind it, or a real sense on how much gravity the other person will put on it. So, dear ones, be careful before you tell someone you're in love. Said too hastily, and you may soon find yourself "inlove".
