Take the word, " good " , in the above example. Even though I know what Vince means in that context, I also know that MOST READERS don't have a definition that matches Vince's use of the word. " Good " means, the best of a favorable character or tendency, bountiful, fertile, comely, attractive, suitable, fit, sound, whole, agreeable, pleasant, salutable, wholesome, considerable, ample, full, well-rounded, true, real, recognized or valid, esp in law, adequate, satisfactory, conforming to a standard, upper-class, competent, loyal, blab, blab, blab... And, NOWHERE in all those meanings is anything even close to what Vince actually was refering to. So now the readers are back to nursery rhyme values, " sugar and spice and everything nice " type of mentality. So, what is this post about? How is this post VERY MEANINGFUL for those who practice healingenergies? How can one get past those worthless nominalizations and into the real world? I'm amazed at the words, like " good " , that irritate the Hell out of me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
