LOML….?

LOML

I remember the first day I saw those letters together. It took me a bit of time to figure it out, but I did.

I’ve spent too much time lately, listening to Taylor Swift’s LOML and letting her make me wonder how many times those words ‘love of my life’ left someone hurt when they realized they weren’t really it…the love of their life.

I’ve also been wondering, does one really have one  love in their life? Take for example, when you listen to Erykah Badu sing an ode to hip hop, you realize that it’s really possible for loml to refer to something and not only someone.

So, maybe in the need to be honest, one could say; “You are one of the loves of my life”. Okay I’m really laughing here.

…but really, I love my son, my husband, music, books, coffee and so many things. So how do I decide which of them is the love of my life?

All this just reminds me of one of the ways my husband calls me. “My favourite girl”. When I was a lot younger, I hated it, but now I think I have reasoned it out. Of course, he’s got his mom and sisters and other girls in his life too, right?. I guess I will take “favourite” gladly.

Well, Taylor Swift has given us new words for the acronym, she says it’s ‘Loss of my Life’. Hmmmm.
