"the smallest free form (an item that may be uttered in isolation with semantic or pragmatic content) in a language. Typically a word will consist of a root or stem and zero or more affixes. Words can be combined to create other units of language such as phrases, clauses and sentences. A word consisting of two or more stems joined together form a compound. A word combined with an already existing word or part of a word form a portmanteau."
Anyhow, wikipedia aside, I believe that words are part of who we are and everything that comes with it. In short, they create our personal world. Words enable the user to self express, discover, learn, you name it. Most of all though, I think words are the single, most prominent means of influence. With the aptitude to use words, comes power to influence and responsibility... Some choose their words well, while others just should not be allowed to use them at all.
Here are some words of wisdom, nicely said by my friend Ajay Gulati:
Everything that comes into your life should
either stay with you and become your strength
or leave you and make you free. It shouldn't
stay with you and become your weakness.
Song of the day:
Extreme: More than words
either stay with you and become your strength
or leave you and make you free. It shouldn't
stay with you and become your weakness.
