WORDS

I find it weird how words have so much effect on us. They can be vibrations in the air, made by some weird organ, hidden deep in our throats. They can be ink scratched on a page, or paint splashed on a sign. They can even be particles of energy travelling through fiber optics cables, like the ones you are reading now. Words can galvenize us, cause genocide,  bring tears of joy or pain, inspire fear or incite love. But words are words, nothing more, they are constructs of our minds. We apply our own meanings to these meaningless entities and somehow they become all powerful. Defining us as people by how we use them. I dunno, I just find it weird.
