BEDA: Words

There's so many words that someone can use to describe something.  Think for a moment about how many different words you know.  How many others have you heard?  And there's still more.  Shakespeare invented over 17,000 words as he wrote, and that was centuries ago.  To be able to even articulate is astonishing because my dog can only croon.  Miraculously, we can speak, and other people want to listen.  We have to choose carefully, but still be ourselves and the words we use could mean everything.  Or they could mean nothing.  It's really up to you.  Think about what you're hearing, and then think about what you're understanding.  Then come and tell me what our society is.
