The Power Behind.

"By words we learn thoughts,
and by thoughts we learn life"
-Jean Baptiste Girard
We use a variety of words single every day.  Regardless of the language we are using our words fill the majority of the time we spend awake each day.  Because of this, I feel we take our languages for granted. 

The words we use, tend to determine our thoughts and like the wise Jean Baptiste Girard implied here, our thoughts then have a enormous effect on the lives we choose to lead.

It is impossible to list all the objects, memories, ideas, and thoughts that accompany a single word and that facinates me.  Within this blog, I plan to examine what single words mean to my life.  By doing so, just maybe I'll gain some appreciation for what these words mean to me and possibly discover what direction my own life is headed.
