The lives that have touched us, the experiences that have shaped us, everything that has made us who we are...
This is our wealth. This is the storehouse from which new life arises,
the treasure in our hearts that makes the impossible possible,
shatters limitations,
builds high and digs deep,
lives long and sees far.
A big part of my candidate year for the AODA is poetry — learning to read it, write it, and appreciate it. I admit that when I was younger I considered most poetry that I read to be too old, too pompous, too idiotic, and too cynical; but now that I am getting older, more pompous, more idiotic, and very slightly more cynical, — well, I admit it, most poetry still seems old, pompous, idiotic, and cynical.

Words are potent and dangerous magic spells. Well, maybe a word like “toothpaste” isn’t particularly magical, but most words carry some power to them; and some words are so powerful that using them in casual conversation can have terrible unintended consequences.

Forgive me if I don’t list out these words for you. But of course, they are words for Defecation, Reproduction, and People Not Like Me (racial/national/ethnic groups).

WORD OF THE DAY |
|---|---|
Not just a word. A guided tour of a tiny piece of the human experience. These are words you already know - simple words like god and sun and home. Words that are part of the furniture of your mind, the vocabulary of your subconscious, the words in your heart. You'll read about where they come from and what they mean, just like in a regular word-of-the-day, but you'll also read about how their sounds contribute to their meaning in subtle ways (phonosemantics), related words, and their place in the universal subconscious. |
