Shhh, just be careful, Linguistics is addictive. And a gateway to even heavier drugs, like constructed languages!
Jokes aside I get the passion. It’s that sort of field of knowledge that, no matter where you look at, you’ll find something beautiful about it.
Sometimes it’s a small etymology that “clicks” on you, or a speaker using some idiosyncratic variation; sometimes it’s pondering how we humans seized the world because we speak, perhaps as instinctively as the spiders weave webs or the cats destroy furniture. There’s room in Linguistics to be creative, or to be rigorous; to look at the past, or to investigate the present.
