Ah, are you asking this question about the English language, or beyond any and all languages?  Your question clarified words, so I know symbolic language is not part of this questions scope.   Ummm...so I wonder.

There is a word in Japanese, kokoro, that has no English equivalent!  It is such a vast and heart felt understanding that a whole book was written by Lafcadio Hearn to attempt to convey the multidimensional and multivalent meanings that this word encompassed in Japanese cultural understanding of this word. 

Ever so loosley we sound bite this word to, "living from the heart," and in so doing we bridge a footpath to its depth, but it falls short  delivering a true meaning. 

A long study of the nuances of living from the heart and experiencing this way of relating and influencing life is required to give justice to a simple word the English language does not even attempt to encode into a concept, let alone into a word.  Says a lot about us, does it not?

Everything transcendent fails to be contained in the container of any word or words!

People will rally and support animals with more gusto and news headlines than I see for children's rights, needs, etc.  This I don't understand.

Hating people, esp so when you've never even met them??!  This I don't understand.

Why people keep voting in politicians who lie, deceive, and bail out the rich?  How ANY politician can vote on a bill TO MAKE IT LAW, and NOT EVEN READ it??!!  This is gross incompetence and dangerous. 

I don't understand the American silence.

People's obsession with sports
over caring for children's needs, esp. the abused and neglected ones,
over political issues that are enslaving them,
over spending quality time with their families, esp. their kids,
over banking policies that are making them poor,
over their Spiritual life, releasing their pains,

So much I do not understand. 

The list, IF I had the time to prepare it would amount to a very long litany of insane behaviors that people accept and even support that harm them and the world they "live" in. 

Confusion is a real problem to face in returning to sanity of MAKING SENSE.

All to Love, Sharon
