Words

Words are dangerous because they’re deceptive.

They can be intentionally deceitful, and unintentionally honest.

Reading words is as much about reading the energy and true intentions behind them as it is about processing the ink blots, and that is neither easy nor reliable.

We read words at our peril.

This little post was inspired by an e-mail. Maybe tomorrow all will become clear.

Me neither, Zhen. And me too.

I mean't to add, Mel, that the missing words sometimes say more than the ones that are there.

Maria: Yes, I just think words are particularly so. Or can be.
