Really?! Nihilism...Hmmm...
Well, it took a consult with Mr. Webster to make sure I even knew what the word means...total rejection of established laws and institutions.
I can't say that I've ever sat and thought about anything in terms of complete rejection...hmmm, what do I reject...
It feels a little weird to be saying this, especially as I plan my own wedding, but of all institutions, I am most discouraged with the institution of marriage. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge proponent for commitment and the joining of lives, but it's hard to believe in a system that doesn't allow every one to legally marry. Times change and so should the social institutions in which we most strongly believe, and effect the greatest majority. There shouldn't be laws that determine which genders of people are allowed to love one another and be legally bound. So, I guess it is fair to say I reject the [current] established laws which govern the participation in the institution of marriage.
***I'm crossing my fingers for a much "fluffier" word tomorrow!
