Ok. I found this on another site and I liked it so much that I thought I'd share it with the world.
"So I looked up the word love in the dictionary. I
found: 'a strong feeling of affection', ok fine. So I looked up
'affection' and got: 'fondness'. Synonomyc so far - yes - but it got
interesting as I went a few words further. From 'fondness' I extracted "to
like" from my Oxford English book. "Like" led to "agreeable" and then
"satisfactory". Oh my gosh(!), I thought; the word love is being reduced
into mere satisfaction... What's to follow that, "o.k.-ness"???! Almost.
Next on "Love"'s deductive journey came "acceptable" (my stomach knotted).
Frantically flipping to "acceptable"'s definition I slammed into "adequate"
(my brow furrowed). Adequate? Would you rather drink adequate water or
Fiji water? hmmmm. fijiforme.
From "adequate" I got "the state of being equal". Equal to?
Oneness.
"Nifty" eh??
So love is just now "Nifty"?!?!?
