Why I love the Spanish Language

So who knew that me of all people could find grammar interesting, I have some pretty bad grammar and don’t really understand half of it, but while learning how to say things like I’m late or I’m snacking (on cookies, etc) the way its conjugated is not in the 1st person but in the 3rd person in a form that is used for actions that are not intentional, i.e. you will not accept responsibility for them. So you can't say Yo Estoy tarde (I am Late) instead you say “Se Me Hizo Tarde” which literally means something got in the way and made me late its not my fault….the same goes for snacking Se Me Antoja comer chocolates (literally translates to the chocolates snacked on me!) God, I love this language….
