Having the right word and understanding it is the glory of living. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story “Criminal” is “behaviorally challenged.” Of course I think you would have to get a good definition of the word “behaviorally” because I have no idea what that means. Here is one that really grabbed me. “Dead” which is simply “living impaired.” Seriously? I did like the word “Dishonest,” which is defined as “ethically disoriented.” Somebody is disoriented, that's for sure. Then the one that really from my point of view makes no sense at all. “Drunk,” which is defined, “chemically inconvenienced.” Whoever can keep up with this list of words is simply “willy-nilly challenged.” Do not ask me what that means because I have no idea. Talking to some people, it is like talking in a foreign language of some sort. You have to be careful what word you use or you do not use. For all of these I would like to say, “Pardon my politically correct challenged brain.” Whoever says that words cannot hurt you is certainly not “temporarily metabolically abled.” One of my passions is to find the right word for what I am trying to say. Just when I get it down, someone comes along and changes the whole meaning of it to the point where I have no idea what I am saying. King David understood the importance of words when he wrote, “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee” (Psalms 119:11). Having the right word and understanding it is the glory of living. Tweet
