Enthusiasm originally meant inspiration or possesion by a divine afflatus or by the presence of a god. Johnson’s Dictionary, the first comprehensive dictionary of the English language, defines enthusiasm as “a vain belief of private revelation; a vain confidence of divine favour or communication.” In current English vernacular the word simply means intense enjoyment, interest, or approuval.
In contemporary usage, enthusiasm has lost its meaning that someone is over excited and irritable.
The enthusiast also refers to the “Type Seven” personality type. Some who fall into this modern definition of “enthusiasts” are adventurous, constantly busy with many activities with all the energy and enthusiasm of the Puer Aeternus (Peter Pan Complex). At their best they grab life for its different joys and wonders and truly live in the moment but, at their worst, they dash trepidatiously from one new endeavor to another, too scared of disappointment to actually enjoy themselves. Enthusiasts fear being incapable to provide for themselves or to experience life fully.
The term is sometimes used to describe the demeanor of fans of various activities or organizations, ranging from hunting aficionados to wine lovers.
how about the times, the million times I want to send you a text but I don’t hoping that you would do and you never did. Then again, times I write to you and you don’t even read, or when I enjoy something and I want to share it with you but you don’t even show interest. But for what concerns your things I always need to show how much I love what you do, always cheering you up, always supporting you. You know what’s new? I’M FUCKING FED UP. So see what you can do now. I swear God this is the last time I’m giving you a chance to change.
