The use of the language has been both the greatest achievement of humanity and the bane of its existence. It is a great achievement in the way that language has allowed for large numbers of people to learn and expand their knowledge. We have used language to form technology and create a society so advanced it never would have been possible without it. The "bane" comes in, and I have said this before, in the way that we get lost in words. We think now almost solely through language. So when we say things like "I love you" the connotation behind the saying can mean many different things. We have idealized everything and in doing so have allowed ourselves to manipulation, mostly by our own unconscious hands. If someone can explain to me a solid definition of "Love" I will commend them. Also, what do you mean when you tell your partner "I love you"? And to reiterate a previous message from a previous blog, if anyone can tell me what a relationship is and, more importantly, where this elusive relationship resides I will, once again, commend you. The truth is these sayings and their respective meanings can have many different connotations. And often we confuse our words with our meanings. An example of which would be the following common question and answer:

Q: "What are you feeling right now?"

A: "I feel like you're being rude!"

I feel like you're being rude is not an example of a feeling, that is an opinion.

Take a look at your life and find out what forms of manipulation you take part in.
